- Put the garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, bitter orange juice and oil in the mixing bowl. Blend 15 sec/speed 7 to make the marinade.
- Make deep cuts in the pork leg and rub with the marinade, reaching well into the interior. Marinate covered in the fridge 12 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 160°C. Place the pork leg with the bay leaves in a baking dish, cover with foil.
- Bake 3 hours at 160°C.
- Remove the foil, raise to 200°C and bake 40 more min until the skin is crispy.
- Let rest 15 min before carving.
Tips
- The Thermomix makes the marinade; the oven does the slow cooking.
- Marinating overnight guarantees the best flavor.
