  • Summary

    Not to be confused with ham, a fresh leg of pork is relatively uncommon today. The traditional Cuban way is to dress it with oregano and lemon, an approach that couldn't be easier -- or better.

    Ingredients

    • 3 heads garlic, minced, plus 5 cloves, halved
    • 1/4 cup grated lemon zest
    • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    • 3 bunches fresh oregano, chopped
    • 1 1/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
    • 11/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1 leg of pork (20 pounds), bone-in, skin-on
    • 2 cups dry white wine
