Recipe is created forTM 5
Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
Recipe's preparation
-
Score pork belly (5mm apart). Dry pork rind with paper towel and rub all over with salt(and pepper if desired). Place in Varoma.
Add water and soy sauce(you can use stock or salt instead if you prefer) to bowl and set time to 1 Hour Varoma temp.
You will have to add extra time. Add extra water regularly. The pork is ready when it is almost falling apart. A skewer will go through like butter.
I have to cook mine for between 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours depending on the size of the pork(it is worth the extra cooking time!!).
-
Preheat oven to 200-220 degrees celcius.
Add corrot, onion and celery to roasting tray and place pork belly on top. Season pork rind with salt again and drizzle rind well with olive oil and place into oven on top rack.
Cook until rind has crackled(this can take around 60 minutes extra depending on the oven).
Prepare pork for Varoma
Tip
Choose a piece of pork belly that has thick, firm rind on it. It will crackle much better than thin rind.
20 minutes before the pork is finished in the varoma, add your roasting potato's either into the bottom of the varoma or into the steaming basket in the bowl. Once finished, add them to the roasting tray.
Don't forget to add more water to the bowl.
The crackle will not happen as fast as a raw piece of pork but when it does, it happens rather quickly.

trueyg: You can get pork belly on or off the bone. The belly on the bone has a load more flavour - you can ask for the piece that is at the other end of the cut that doesnt have the bone in it - which is the cut of pork you most often see as belly in the supermarkets. My butcher usually asks which piece I want

Amazing!!! Beautiful crackling, pork cooked to perfection. Following other comments on here, I added star anise, cinnamon stick and 2 garlic cloves to make sauce with the left over water and soy while pork was in the oven, delicious.

Novice male cook needs advice. Cooked yesterday as a test with meat, crackle, veggies turning out fantastic. However the steaming period was a lot longer than all the directions and readers tips etc advised and I put this down to the bone in the piece of pork. Question. Is it normal to cook the pork belly with the bone in or should I have asked the butcher to remove.
Thank you

I have a TM31, I cooked my 1.1kg pork for 1 1/2 hours, adding 500g water at 60min mark.
Then transferring to oven for another 60mins, crackle was perfect and the meat was restaurant quality.

I made this and it was
I made this and it was delicious. My piece of pork was slightly large for the Varoma and so the lid sat a bit off and it took about 3 hours to cook. HIghly recommend.
This was by far the best pork
This was by far the best pork belly I have ever cooked. The family loved it including our 10 month old who growled because I was not feeding it too her fast enough.
Will definitely cook again. I made the sauce as above - water and soy mixture from the bowl, teaspoon garlic, star anaise and cinnamon stick, it was perfecg with the port meat and veggies.
Unfortunately I had error code C144 and C160 come up and my machine shut down

Made this today. OMG!!!! it turned out amazing! Best recipe i have tried so far. This recipe taught my daughter the word "crackle" as she kept wanting more
Hi! You put the roast meat on
Hi! You put the roast meat on top of the carrot, onion and celery in the oven(second last paragraph of preparation instructions). It protects the meat from burning and sticking to the roasting tin. i hope you enjoyed it!
Hope this turns out, its in
Hope this turns out, its in the oven now, I've invested 2.5 hrs already.

Used the soy liquid to make a sauce with a bit of honey, garlic, a star anise & cinnamon stick simmering for a bit.

I I have had the c161 error. I'm sure it was when I was doing sorbet though. I took it to the service center and had it back within two days. They asked me if I had wet the base of the machine so I think it was probably from condensation from the ice in the bowl. Thankfully, it hasn't happened since it was serviced.
OMG! Ahhhhmazing! Had a 1.1
OMG! Ahhhhmazing!
Had a 1.1 kg pork belly, cooked in the varoma for 1.5hours and then in the oven for an hour on 200 degrees. Next time I will put it in there for 45mins on 220 for cracklier crackling
Absolutely perfect meat! Melt in your mouth!
Thanks heaps!
P.S
Did anyone else's thermie get a 161 error come up about an hour into the cooking which in turn shut the machine off?? I'm assuming this came up because the machine was getting too hot... but also thinking it shouldn't really do that. Will be contacting my Consultant but am curious if others experienced the same thing
This dish is fab! My first
This dish is fab! My first time making pork belly. I put the piece of pork on top of carrots, celery, onions, potoates, sweet potato etc and cooked it all together in the oven. I ended up poping it under the grill for about 5 minutes to finish the crackle (it was getting late, everyone was hungry!). I will definitely make this regularly from now on. I made a sauce using the steaming liquid, honey and half a can of strongbow cider (cut through the saltiness of the soy). Next time I will add some star anise to the steaming liquid too.
I wouldn't leave the house
I wouldn't leave the house when cooking this due to usung such a high temperature and having to check water levels regularly(you get a tar like substance if you don't and its soooo hard to clean. Lesson learned lmao).
You most certainly could pre cook it. You will just need to ensure that the core temperature is hot enough so I would probably start off at 180° and increase it after 30 minutes to crackle.
Thanks for posting this

Made this again tonight after making it about 8 times now over the past 7 mths and still simply delicious. Yummo!!! If you havent tried this yet then give it a go - you wont be sorry. Crunchy crackle and tender meat. Thanks for posting this recipe.
Great recipe 1 kg took 1-1/2
Great recipe 1 kg took 1-1/2 hrs Varoma, 1 hr 220 degrees in oven. So tender, crunchy crackling and took a quarter of the time of slow cooking. Awesome, will use it again.
Steamed 400g of pork belly
Steamed 400g of pork belly for almost 2 hours and it still didn't seem to 'cut like butter' so I gave up and decided to put it in the oven anyway. It turned out just fine in the oven after 40 minutes but could've left it longer for a crispier texture.
Ok it's official.. we just
Ok it's official.. we just had this.. it was.. without a shadow of a doubt.. the BEST pork belly we have EVER tasted. The crackling was PERFECT.. and the meat fell apart. I did do the veggies separately in the air fryer and sprinkled them with an aussie roast herb mix.. Made some gravy out of the water/soy mix (once I put the pork in the oven).. with a little apple sauce, salt & pepper and some flour and it was to die for. My son is the biggest judge - he LOVES pork.. and especially loves the crackling.. and he said it's the best meal he's ever had (he's 20).. SOOO good! Very time consuming in a sense.. but it's very very fuss free! I found part of my 'belly' was a bit thinner so propped that up in the oven with the vegs and once they died down I halved an apple and kept it propped so the crackle crisped wink emoticon OMG.. do it.. it's simply.. THE BEST
Finally success!! I've tried
Finally success!!
I've tried numerous times to cook pork belly and failed...but this recipe delivered results! Meat was tender and crackling was great! Steamed the pork belly for 1.5hours and cooked at 220 for an hour in the oven...so so good!! Thanks for the recipe!
