Ingredients
- 500 grams pork skin
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2
Place the pork skin on a clean cutting board. Using a sharp knife, score the skin deeply in a criss-cross pattern without cutting all the way through. This will help the skin puff up and crispen.
Step 3
Drizzle the olive oil over the pork skin and rub it into the cuts. Ensure the skin is well-coated.
Step 4
Mix the sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in a small bowl.
Step 5
Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the scored pork skin, ensuring it gets into all the cuts.
Step 6
Place the seasoned pork skin on the prepared baking tray, skin side up.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the skin is golden and crispy.
Step 8
Keep an eye on the crackle to prevent it from burning, especially during the last 10 minutes.
Step 9
Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly on a wire rack.
Step 10
Once cooled, break the crackle into bite-sized pieces and serve immediately as a snack or side dish.
