For the belly:

1 Place pork belly in a roasting tin. Cut up the garlic, thyme and rosemary, then mix all together with the rock salt and sprinkle over the pork belly.

3 Place the duck fat in an ovenproof, large saucepan, melt the fat over a medium heat, do not boil. Once melted, add the pork belly, make sure the meat is fully submerged in the duck fat and then cover with tin foil. Cook in pre heated oven 120°C for 1 ½ hours.

4 Once cooked, remove pork belly from the duck fat. Allow to cool before portioning into 6 pieces, then colour in a frying pan until golden.
