Ingredients

Pork Belly Carnitas
Pork belly (cubed 1/2 inch)300 g
Salt0.5 tsp
Cumin powder0.25 tsp

Method
Pork Belly Carnitas
1
Toss the cubed pork belly with salt and cumin. Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork belly in its own rendering fat until crispy, golden-brown, and cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain slightly.
Cheese Sauce
2
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and add heavy cream. Bring to a bare simmer, then whisk in the shredded cheddar cheese gradually until completely melted. Remove from heat and rapidly whisk in the egg yolks to emulsify the sauce into a rich, glossy cheese dip.
Nacho Base
3
Spread a thick layer of crispy pork rinds evenly across a serving platter or shallow basket.
Plate
4
Drizzle the warm cheese sauce generously over the pork rinds, pile the crispy hot pork belly carnitas on top, and garnish with pickled jalapeno slices for a punchy, spicy finish.
