Ingredients
- 500g pork skin, cleaned and trimmed
- 2 tablespoons coarse salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Score the pork skin lightly with a sharp knife, making sure not to cut too deep into the fat.
- Boil the pork skin in water for about 20 minutes to soften. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
- Rub the coarse salt (and optional spices) all over the pork skin, ensuring it enters the scored lines.
- Place the pork skin on a wire rack over a baking tray to catch drips. This allows hot air to circulate around the pork skin, making it extra crispy.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the skin is golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. The pork skin will continue to crisp up as it cools.
- Break or cut into pieces and serve as a snack or appetizer.
