    1 teaspoon dried thyme

    1 teaspoon dried rosemary

    Place the pork belly on a baking sheet. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, and garlic.

    Place the sage leaves on top of the meat.

    Roll up the meat into a tight cylinder.

    Tie the roll with kitchen twine.

    Brush the roll with olive oil.

    Roast in the oven at 350°F (180°C) for 2-3 hours, or until the skin is crispy.

 

Tips:
