Must have for Chinese New Year! If I had known it was this easy to make, I would have tried it years ago! Happy Sunday! 💕

[@philso7872]

Did you allow Dude to have any from the one you demonstrated the preparation with or did you keep it all for yourself? 😉😋

[@janiceandthomas]

Same! Its surprisingly not hard to produce restaurant-quality results at home. What I want to perfect next is Char Siu...

[@Bobmox13]

The crackling is not even that crispy is chewy

[@Mkrfan2013]

@@Bobmox13 you are right! Too much self praise! And talking about nothing!! 😡

[@mcintoshfamily3184]

I just had surgery on my gums and this recipe is wicked to me right now, but I promise, after my gum heals, I am eating a pound all by myself. Keep on cooking.

[@iohamak03]

Mahalo (thank you) from Hawaii! Found a loaf pan that would fit in my air fryer and this came out great! Went only 6 minutes at 400 for the final stretch, and toothpicks didn’t work for the prep stage so I used a super sharp, poitnty paring knife for the holes. Let it come to room temp and keep wiping it off! The comment on using a rub of 4:1 salt to baking soda helped!

[@dorothyyoung8231]

“Leave no crackling behind!” Love it!

[@ronaldnishimura8357]

This siu yuk(roast pork) and your garlic noodles are the one-two punch, above restaurant quality and so easy to make. Have done this duo several times over the past year--no need for take outs. Thank you so much for these easy tasty recipes.

[@bryanbaez8973]

Being German and Latino, I’ve always appreciated everyone’s cultures and as well as holidays and traditions! I am glad I came across this! I want to try this at home BUT I also love learning the culinary parts among the world ☺️🔥🔥🔥

[@landoan4719]

Thanks ❤️👍

[@liviococcia]

That sounds so tasty, so crunchy..... And all done in an Airfryer too, I salute the chef...a great video, with simply clear instructions, thank you

[@mainscanner9843]

Tried it first time and it was a hit! Ive watched so many other how-to videos on this and this so far is the easiest way but still so much flavor! Thank you so much!

[@ryanburr8419]

If you don't want to wait 24 hours for the pork belly to dry out then just use some aluminium foil and fold up the sides to make a dish that protects the meat of the pork belly. Pat the top dry with a paper towel and then brush it with some vinegar and put it in the airfryer at 90C/200F for 30 minutes. Then brush on some oil and salt the skin put it back in at 200C/400F for 40 mins. Using this method you don't even have to prick the top skin and you will still get wonderful crispy pork belly.

[@phxsun2001tony]

There is not enough cracking on the skin, from the picture of your roast pork. I am prettty sure the skin was pretty tough too. You have not treated the skin well enough . Try these additional step and it will make better roast pork.. 1) Boil just the skin by putting the pork belly over 1/4 inch of water in a frying pan for 10 minutes. You may have to add water from time to time This will make the skin soft and easier to poke holes. This will guarantee the skin will crack nicely in the air fryer. Yours did not crack. 2) Add viniger on the skin before you poke holes, so it will get inside the skin. 3) To dry the skin, I don't pt it in the frig overnight. I put it in the air fryer at 150F until you think the skin is dry enough. Usually I start around 9AM and the roast port is ready around noon. 4) The last secrete I have been using to guarantee 100% success to get the skin to crack is to use an industrial heat gun to burn the areas that did not crack enough. In the US you can get one at Harbor Fright for about $18. 5) Any one can make roast pork to taste great. The hardest part is to make the skin to crack just like the BBQ place. By adding the above steps, you have a much better chance to succeed.

[@chinatse8110]

Flo!!! I just made this Roast Pork Belly from your KZbin video! OMG! I turned out perfect! I cannot believe that I actually made it myself!!! Thank you so much for your amazing instructions! I’m so excited!

[@FloLum]

Yay!

[@kenfoster3983]

That crunch was worth it.

[@davidapps2605]

Your mouth was watering ? . . My mouth was watering right from the start 😂😂. I can't believe the CRUNCH 😘😀

[@franzjoseph9074]

Thanks amazing recipe!

[@virginiaeriguel8738]

Looks super yummy.thanks for sharing this recipe

[@navystan]

Love your husband play by play and final tasting with the mic right next to his mouth. Perfect!

[@MataH1]

I like that your seasoning is really simple, that's the only way to keep the taste of the pork.

[@joe7pham]

Agreed. My mouth is watering and it's bedtime.

[@030604lill]

Crispy roast pork all by itself is legitness. Just give me a bowl of rice and bango! Not sure if it's a Hawaii thing but I love to stir fry crispy roast pork with some mustard cabbage. And eat with a bowl of rice.

[@unreal_coco]

This.was.fantastic. Once the meat was ready, it was so easy to make! My family didn’t give me time to take pictures! 😂 It was my first time cooking like this with my instant pot duo crisp + air fryer, and it came out great! I just ignored the burn food warning and it was perfection. I have both of your cookbooks from Amazon and I can’t wait to try this and other recipes at our next family get together 🎉❤

[@jcenteno69]

OMG Flo I came across your recipe on KZbin and it was my my first time trying to make a crispy pork belly it was so juicy and crispy and I have to tell you your recipe was your recipe was one of the most delicious that I've ever had thank you so much..😁

[@eileenwong7987]

You are an amazing gifted cook Flo and a heart of gold to share with viewers. What an incredible Creation ☺️❤️ Love all your cooking. Have learned a lot. You deserve the Best ☺️😙

[@jimboyfederigan6598]

Thats the reason y i just bought myself an air fryer cant wait on saturday

[@GeezerDust]

You recommended buying from the "butcher". Unless you live in a large city(like NY), butchers are a thing of the past. Enjoying your videos and also your cookbook, "Chinese Homestyle".

[@BijiTGeorge]

Just tried this today for the first time... Just amazing!!!

[@eMavern_Emporium]

I had to watch this when I was eating dinner. It still wasn't enough! I am hungry looking at that and will be asking for an air fryer for my bday to recreate this asap

[@janettdelaney1292]

I made this in the Air fryer. It worked out extremely delicious & not to salty. I Did it with the skewers, Thanks... Nat from Aus.

[@celestahoover9746]

Love your recipes and explanation. Dude is so funny. You guys are perfect.

[@ivoryfyall4231]

I made one the other day, I swear I almost ate it all!! I let it dry in my fridge for 2days and slow cooked it in my oven... It was amazing 🙆🏾😂😂Love that crunchhhh!!

[@redtobertshateshandles]

I salted the skin for a few hours drying and resalting as moisture came out. Worked well.

[@eddiet4708]

Lucky you, with the one you've already marinated , you get to enjoy it for two consecutive days. Joking aside, these are going for $15-$20 per pound at the the Chinese BBQ store. Thank you for this recipe.

[@magpie2901]

I have watched different people make this on KZbin and your recipe seems to be the easiest. I will have to try it in the air fryer!

I just bought the air fryer and that cool meat tenderizer so I can make this dish! Thanks for taking the time to share all your wonderful recipes with us. I’ve been having the best time making the recipes from your book as well. Your book is a well needed distraction for all the craziness in the world right now. Blessings to you and Dude!

I like how you massage that pork belly, so gentle!

[@pashtx8190]

I know right.

[@christinebrock9322]

Got your cookbook and love it... BUT, while watching this video, I hand-wrote the recipe down to slide between the pages of the book. Yay!!! All is right in the world! (Well, maybe not the whole world, but at this moment in my little world it is and we have to take the victories when we can get them, right?) Thanks Flo and Dude!

[@niakong773]

Thanks sharing this recipe, I am too cannot be bothered with too many steps😅. Love this simple, easy and tasty recipe that I soon will try it out.

[@louisakwok7785]

I love this video. This is exactly what I am looking for. I will try it tomorrow. Thank you.🙂

[@louisakwok7785]

Flo, Wow! It is so easy to follow your instructions to make the roasted pork belly! I did not pierce the pork belly skin, instead, I applied vinegar to the pork belly skin before I put it in the air fryer. It was still crispy.😋

[@richardwong7681]

OMG you don't have tell me. It's one of those things whether you know it or don't. Mouth watering.

[@Sarah_aus_1604]

Just tried it today. It seems the meat selection is very important. The one I used is simply too fat although it didn’t look so when raw.

[@HondaFamily88]

Great video Flo. Suggest scoring the "meat side" of the pork belly to allow the seasoning to absorb better and for easy cutting (vs scoring the skin side).

[@thelmadagohoybs7645]

i really like the skin especially when so crispy

[@pollackmorgan2194]

Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there😊😊😊

[@VA7BC]

Ok no more lining up at HK BBQ Master for me. WOW! Incredible. This is the straw that is moving me to buy an air fryer. Thanks so much for your excellent videos.

[@wnose]

You don't need an air fryer to get the crispy skin. What do you think those Chinese BBQ restaurants use? Simple oven will do just fine.

[@MCheng-jk7ol]

You've sold me on the air fryer. Btw, it's best to slice it from the meaty side...this results in a clean edge on the skin. Thanks for the recipe/method.

[@dacinaakuhinja8909]

Super od mene lakic 👍🏻

[@wellbbq]

I need to do a DNA test cause this makes me happy.. All aspects of Asian foods make me happy.

[@ivoryfyall4231]

Me too 😀

[@juniorjones5108]

Looks great,I’m going to try that in my new vortex air fryer,thanks for sharing.

[@WhooAreYou]

I tried this with the tenderizing tool but i couldn't puncture the skin. After watching some videos, I think parboiling first can help the process. Otherwise, a reasonable first attempt for me. Thanks for the recipes, @flolum!

[@liamaria2782]

That s absolutely amazing!!! I made it last night and although I don t have a Air fryer per say, I used the airfryer from the pressure cooker and it worked perfectly!!! Thank you Flo!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@garnettspontini1011]

Absolutely love crispy pork belly! Never tried to make it in the air fryer though. I don't know why I didn't think of that lol 😅 thank for the video!

[@willgarciazapanta]

Looks best with a steamed rice. Thank you for sharing !

[@mainscanner2834]

I’ve been looking though a lot of online videos on how to make this - this one is for real! I made it and it is as easy and really delicious as she says it. Thank you for sharing! I will add a little bit more of the 5 spice next time to adjust to my personal taste.

[@HsingSun]

Crispy pork is one of my favor foods. Who doesn't?

[@kevinlindsay5255]

Thank you flo for those wonderful recipe. I take the skin off and dry and Air fry it and sous vied the pork belly which again helps render the fat. I think both methods will end up with juicy pork and crispy skin

Warm greetings from Florida. 🌴🌞New subscriber here! And oh my goodness I'm so thankful for finding this recipe that you beautifully executed! And a resounding YESSS, PLEASE NOW and THANK YOU to "smell'a-vision" 😄 ...even just for this recipe and I'd be satisfied! 😋😋😁 My daughter will be delighted to try this recipe. She lived in Taiwan for a year on a student scholarship 2019 - 2020 learning Traditional Chinese and culture. So now being home since September 2020 she has really been missing the delicious Chinese and Taiwanese food since she's been home. She's trying to recreate some of her favorite dishes she absolutely loved over there so this will be added to her list to try for certain! Thanks guys!
