Using a mortar and pestle, lightly crush garlic, rosemary and fennel seeds. Add oil then rub over pork. Season. Transfer to a baking dish, cover with plastic wrap and chill overnight.

Reduce heat to 375\u00b0F. Cook for another 1 hour 30 mins, until crackling is golden and crisp and pork is cooked through.
Let rest for 15 mins. Remove crackling and cut into serving pieces. Carve pork and arrange on a serving platter with crackling.
