Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake pork belly in foil in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Take chilled pork belly that has not yet been frozen. Otherwise, when defrosting, all the juices will come out of it and the finished dish will turn out dry. I like to use brisket with just enough meat. The small amount of fat that it contains is quite enough to make the piece juicy. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the pork belly under running water and pat dry well with a paper towel to remove all excess moisture from the surface of the piece. Peel the garlic. Using a sharp knife, make slits in the sides of the brisket and insert the garlic cloves. If the garlic cloves are very large, then each clove can be cut into 2-3 parts.

Step 3

Step 3
Then sprinkle the brisket pieces with salt, ground pepper and spices to your liking. I used paprika. Rub the salt and spices into the piece with your hands.

Step 4

Step 4
Place the prepared brisket on a sheet of foil. Place a few bay leaves on top.

Step 5

Step 5
Wrap the brisket tightly in foil so that there are no holes left anywhere. If necessary, you can take another sheet of foil. Place the wrapped piece in a metal baking dish and place in the oven preheated to 190 degrees for about 1.5 hours. The exact time depends on your oven. Why do you need a metal mold? It is best suited for dry baking. Ceramic or glass can crack from excessive heat.

Step 6

Step 6
Due to the fact that the piece is tightly wrapped, it will not fall apart during cooking. After the specified time, remove the pan from the oven. Using a sharp knife, cut through the foil and let sit for a couple of minutes. During this time, the heat will come out of the dish and it can be transferred to a dish.

Step 7

Step 7
The finished brisket can be immediately cut into pieces and enjoyed. Or you can put it in the refrigerator until it cools completely. Once cooled, it will be convenient to cut into thin slices for sandwiches. Bon appetit!
