Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a roasting pan with baking paper. Place the pork in the lined pan. Pat the rind dry with paper towel. Use a small sharp knife to score the rind at 1cm intervals. Brush the rind with olive oil. Combine the salt and five spice in a small bowl. Rub salt mixture into the rind. Roast for 50 mins.
  2. Step 2

    Increase oven temperature to 230°C. Roast pork for a further 20-30 mins or until cooked through. Set aside for 5 mins to rest.
  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, combine the wombok, ginger, apple, mint, spring onion and half the chilli, if using, in a large bowl. Combine the lime juice, fish sauce, sesame oil and sugar in a screw-top jar. Seal and shake well to combine. Season.
  4. Step 4

    Transfer the pork to a large serving platter with the wombok mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining chilli, if using. Thickly slice the pork and drizzle the wombok mixture with dressing to serve.
