Place in oven for 10 mins on high to crisp up top then turn heat down to moderate about 300 degrees F or around 150 degrees Celsius and bake for 1 hour and 20 mins or until tender
Serve with Squash sauce, daikon wedges, and green beans
Where do you find a leg of pork with skin on.
Observation: 10 minutes at 350 will not create crackling ?
You can pick it up at most butcher shops. With the rest of the cooking time it will get crackly on top.
When we turn heat down to moderate, how hot should it be, 300 degrees?
Please confirm.
Yes thats correct 350 degrees F or around 150 degrees Celsius
