The ingredients in this recipe are too expensive. I'm not willing to spend that much money on a single dish.

This recipe is too complicated. I'm not a very experienced cook and I found it difficult to follow.

I followed the recipe exactly but the pork knuckle didn't come out as tender as I hoped. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The pork knuckle was a bit dry, but the crackling was good.
