Here is a basic recipe to prepare crispy pork rinds:
Ingredients:
- Pork skin (preferably with a thick layer of fat)
- Salt
- Pepper
- Oil for frying
Instructions:
Prepare the pork skin: Clean the pork skin with water and dry it with kitchen paper. If necessary, cut the skin into smaller pieces to make it easier to handle.
Cook the skin: In a large pot or deep fryer, heat enough oil over medium-high heat to completely cover the pork skin. Make sure the oil is hot before adding the skin.
Fry the skin: Place the pork skin in the hot oil, fat side down. Fry for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Be careful not to burn it.
Remove and drain: Once the skin is crispy and golden, remove it from the oil and place it on absorbent paper to drain any excess fat.
Season to taste: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the hot chicharrón, according to your preference. You can also add other seasonings like paprika, garlic powder, or chili powder for more flavor.
Serve and enjoy: Cut the crispy chicharrón into smaller pieces if desired and serve hot as an appetizer or side. Enjoy its delicious flavor and crunchy texture!
Remember that crispy chicharrón is an indulgent and high-calorie dish, so it is recommended to enjoy it in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Enjoy!
