These little bites layer the rich crispness of our Pork Belly Thins with soft cheese, sweet dates, fragrant thyme and a drizzle of honey. The contrast of textures crisp, creamy, chewy and glossy makes them a standout canapé for any occasion.
Ingredients
-
8-10 slices of Pork Belly Thins (1 Pack)
- 8-10 Medjool dates, sliced halfway and pitted
- 50g soft cheese (such as goat’s cheese, mascarpone or cream cheese)
- Runny honey, for drizzling
- A few sprigs of fresh thyme to finish
Directions
- Slice the dates halfway through and remove the pit. Pull the date open gently making sure not to split it in half.
- Place a small piece of cheese inside each date and push the sides in to secure.
- Lay each slice of pork belly on a board or counter and wrap the cheese filled date with the thins.
- Place the canapé in an air fryer or under the grill until golden and crisp. Set aside on a paper towel to cool slightly.
To serve drizzle over runny honey and sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the top for a hint of herbal aroma.
Recipe Note
Best enjoyed warm, when the pork belly is crisp and the honey just begins to mingle with the cheese.
