INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz trimmed slow-braised pork belly
1 cup mixed roasted root vegetables (carrots & parsnips)
1 large egg
1 egg white
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp hemp seeds
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the vegetables.
Prepare the root vegetables by peeling and cutting carrots and parsnips into uniform pieces. Toss them with a drizzle of olive oil (optional if within calorie range), salt, pepper, chopped rosemary, and thyme.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, if not already prepared, slow-braise the pork belly until it becomes tender. Once braised, trim away excess fat from the top, then cut the pork belly into bite-sized pieces. Warm gently if needed.
Separate the egg white from one egg and set aside. In a small saucepan or using your preferred method, poach the whole egg and then gently add the egg white into the poaching water for a slightly additional protein boost until both are cooked to your liking.
Plate the dish by arranging the roasted root vegetables, placing the warm pork belly pieces on top, and nestling the poached egg near the center.
Drizzle a modest amount of nonfat Greek yogurt over the pork belly and vegetables, then sprinkle the hemp seeds on top for an extra nutty flavor and protein boost.
Season with extra salt and pepper if needed, and garnish with extra rosemary or thyme sprigs before serving.
