Easy Pork Belly Wraps with Umeboshi and Shiso Leaves in the Microwave

I'm always rushing in the mornings when I'm preparing our lunchboxes, but I didn't want to depend on frozen food! That's how I came up with this recipe. It's colorful and pleasing to the eye. It turned out to be a life-saver recipe. Go one step further and deep-fry these rolls for a change.

The key is to add a few drops of soy sauce into the umeboshi. It adds flavor to the meat. Just add a few drops, or else it'll become too salty.
The microwave time is an approximate. It depends on the microwave, so watch the meat and adjust the time. For 2 servings. Recipe by ramutomato
