She did a pork belly spread with a prune topping and spread it on homemade melba toast and gave it to her butcher in the market.

I don't completely remember but maybe together we can :-)
Did she slow bake the pork belly for three hours with 1/4 cup brandy 1/2 cup white wine, 2 whole star anise 2 fresh bay leaves ????? I can't remember if she added sugar and I think she put majoram on it. Covered with baking paper and then tightly sealed the tinfoil over the top.
Then mixed the prunes with 1/2 cup red wine and something else and bought that to a simmer in a pot until it was mushy.
Knowing my memory I may have got her other recipes mixed in there. lol. I just thought at the time that it was too many types of booze. lol.

And when the pork was cooked she broke it up and pulsed it in the food processor with 2 tbs of the cooking juice. I was surprised she said it would last up to 10 days in the fridge. I don't think I would be game to leave pork that long.

No probs. Actually there must have been salt and pepper in there too. and can you remember anything else in the prune mix?

Honestly didnt take much notice of the prune mix I was more interested in the way she did the pork belly as I have got one but wasnt sure how to cook it so it was really tender. But im sure there wasnt much in it.

Well I think you could add any flavours you like. As long as there is a bit of liquid and then you seal the roasting dishwell you can make any meat tender by long slow cooking. Yum - enjoy !

The recipe is not on her website as we are 'encouraged' to buy the book! Hoping someone has one of those fancy tv gadgets where you can record, rewind, watch later, ...

Have a look and see if the book is in your library and then you can copy the recipe. I have been known to bring pattern bboks home and photocopy some pages.

Thankyou neil_di! One question - did Annabel add any liquid to the pork before cooking? Asking because I remember when she pulsed it in her wizz - she added a little of the cooking liquid ... or was this just condensation/meat juices?

these are the extra ingred that were not included in post#7 so yes plenty of liquid.
