Method

Step 1 of 3

Preheat the oven to 220°C. Lay the pork out skin-side down. Mix the garlic, olives, and oregano in a bowl, and season with salt and black pepper. Rub the mixture in a line down the middle of the pork, then roll the pork up tightly and secure with string. Sit the roll in a large roasting tin, cut side down. Rub all over with olive oil, then rub sea salt into the cuts.

Step 2 of 3

Roast the pork in the oven for about 20 minutes until the skin is really golden and crispy for perfect crackling. Reduce the oven temperature to 190°C (Gas 4), and continue to roast for a further 1 hour to 1 1/4 hours until the pork is cooked through. Remove to a large plate, and leave to rest in a warm place for about 15 minutes.

Step 3 of 3

Cut the pork into slices, and serve with gravy, apple sauce, crispy roast potatoes, and seasonal vegetables - and a generous piece of crackling for each portion.
