Pork belly wrapped in pancetta with parsley & lemon butter

Take your free-range pork belly to the next level by wrapping it in some sliced pancetta. We source our pancetta from our friends at Somerset Charcuterie. Made in salt chambers in specialist hanging rooms, the flavours and texture of this award-winning charcuterie are unique. We recommend serving this dish with rosemary roasted new potatoes and crisp green veg.

7. Once cooked, remove the pork from the pan and leave it to rest.

8. Place a small knob of unsalted butter into the pan and heat until it has started to turn golden.
