Large serving of Vietnamese crackling roasted pork with ultra-crispy skin, served with chilli dipping sauce

Product information

Ingredients

Roasted pork belly with crackling, shredded iceberg lettuce, shredded carrot, sweet soy and chilli dipping sauce.

Food history

Vietnamese roasted pork belly, known as Heo Quay, reflects a deep culinary exchange between Vietnam and traditional Cantonese roast meats. Often featured at weddings and festive celebrations, it is prized for the dramatic textural contrast between its rich, tender meat and blistered, crispy skin. Today, it remains a wildly popular staple, whether served as a standalone sharing plate or tucked into a fresh banh mi.

Allergens

Contains soy and gluten (in the dipping sauce). May contain traces of fish sauce, sesame, peanuts, shellfish, egg, and dairy from shared kitchen equipment.

Storage

For the best crackling, consume immediately. If saving leftovers, separate the sauce and refrigerate the pork in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Preparation

Remove from the refrigerator and let sit for 10 minutes to take the chill off before reheating.

Cooking

Ready to eat. To restore the crispy skin, reheat the pork in an air fryer or oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 5 to 8 minutes until hot and sizzling. Avoid microwaving, as it will make the crackling rubbery.

Serving

Serve hot or at room temperature, dipping each piece into the provided chilli and soy sauce before eating.
