Instructions

Step 1

Cut pork belly into 4cm pieces and place in a bowl.

Step 2

Combine sugar, paprika, flour, onion, and garlic powder in a bowl, then sprinkle evenly over pork and toss to coat.

Step 3

Place in the fridge for 2 hours, leaving uncovered so the pork dries out.

Step 4

Preheat air fryer to 200°C.

Step 5

Spray pork liberally with oil and season well.

Step 6

Place half the pork in the air fryer basket and cook for 15 minutes, shaking halfway through, until charred and cooked through.

Step 7

Transfer to a bowl and repeat with the remaining pork.

Step 8

Prepare the sauce by combining butter, golden syrup, barbecue sauce, bourbon, and sriracha in a saucepan over medium heat.

Step 9

Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes until smooth, then simmer for 3 minutes until thickened.

Step 10

Drizzle the sauce over the cooked pork to serve.

Pro Tips

#1

Do not cover the pork while chilling in the fridge to allow the surface to dry out for better crisping.

#2

Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

#3

Cook the pork in batches to avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.

#4

Adjust the amount of sriracha if you prefer a milder or spicier sauce.
