- 4 tablespoons of olive oil
- A little salt
- 3.5 kilograms of pork leg
- A handful of coriander leaves (finely sliced)
Step-by-step Instructions
1. In a bowl, add the garlic, cumin powder, chili powder, orange juice, lemon juice, and olive oil. Add a little salt and mix well until combined.
Pour half of the resulting sauce mixture into an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator.
2. Add the pork piece into the remaining sauce bowl and rub it thoroughly. Then marinate it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
3. Once the pork has finished marinating, preheat the oven to 275°F for roasting.
4. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil. Then add the marinated pork along with the marinade liquid. Loosely cover the pork with foil and roast it in the oven for about 3 hours.
5. Once the set time has elapsed, pour the half portion of sauce stored in the container from step (1) over the pork. Then raise the oven temperature to 325°F and roast for another 15 minutes.
When the time is up, let the roasted pork cool down, then slice it into pieces of your preferred size.
And there you have it - a delicious roasted pork leg! You can now enjoy it dipped in your favorite pickled sauce or dressing.
