Bairrada King Pork Roast - Leitão à Bairrada (Mealhada)

In Mealhada
"The spicy flavor of the sauce and the crispy skin of the suckling pig are unmistakable marks of this specialty of Portuguese traditional cuisine. When roasting, the skin should always stay facing up, without overlapping the pieces, so that the skin keeps its crunchy texture and so that the flavor of the meat remains distinct from the skin. It is served with boiled potatoes, and traditionally, with a lettuce salad, being adorned with slices of orange."
