Hints and Tips
Crackling
Prepare the surface of the joint for perfect crackling. Ensure the skin is dry, remove packaging and use kitchen paper to dry the residual moisture. Do not cover the meat during cooking, this creates steam, softening the skin. Some people like to sprinkle a little salt on the skin, this is personal preference and gives a more savoury flavour.Roast on high for 20 minutes then reduce to a moderate oven approx. 180° for 20 minutes per lb (450g).
