Light and Soft Microwaved Pork

Everyone in our house loves dishes that use chunks of pork. I'm thinking of delicious ways to eat it every day.
As it tends to dry out, I came up with this method of keeping it juicy.
The microwave-safe container I used has a diameter of 20 cm and is 10 cm deep, with a lid.
Things get really hot in the microwave and you can burn yourself, so please be careful!
Thigh meat is light, while shoulder roast is a bit rich.
I use thick cuts to really appreciate the softness. Recipe by Stylish Mama

15-Minute Cooking Time Microwave Roast Pork 15-Minute Cooking Time Microwave Roast Pork
I wanted to try making this simply, without using a pot.Could it develop a deep marinated flavor, like with chicken kara-age?Microwaving it seemed like a good way to quickly heat it to the center.These are the ideas that lead to me trying this.At first the flavor was too weak, or I marinated too much which made it salty.This is what I came up with through trial and error.I used pork loin for the pork block. It gives you a roast beef-like texture. If you like a softer feel I recommend pork belly. It's delicious as-is, but it's also great with friend rice. If you like a lighter flavor, then marinate for only 1 day. Recipe by Mihono kitchen cookpad.japan -

Easy Steamed Layered Pork & Lettuce in the Microwave Easy Steamed Layered Pork & Lettuce in the Microwave
I saw on TV that layered steamed dishes can be made easily in the microwave. I made an easy sauce using the microwave too.Since the volume will decrease as it's cooked, fill up the container as much as possible (as seen in the Step 2 photo). Since the tomato sauce will be added later, get rid of the moisture released during cooking. If you won't be using the tomato sauce, keep the steamed juices when eating and it will be so tasty.

Easy Moist & Tender Simmered & Roasted Pork Easy Moist & Tender Simmered & Roasted Pork
My family usually makes boiled pork, but I modified the recipe to make roast pork. Since the pork is only simmered for a short time, it remains tender. You can replace the sugar with a little honey if you'd prefer. You can use pork that's already tied in a net as it is if that's easier than binding it yourself. This recipe will be easier if you unbind the meat just before marinating.For Step 1, please simmer the pork with the lid on and use as thick a pan as possible. For Step 2, it's OK if the juices aren't completely cooled, but please let it sit for at least 3 hours. By letting the meat sit until it has cooled, you get more flavor.When you are marinating the meat in Step 2, remove the air from the bag and tightly seal it shut. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 cookpad.japan -
