Ingredients

  • 10 slices thinly sliced pork belly
  • 20 shiso leaves
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 2 tablespoons sake

Instructions

  • Cut all the pork belly slices in half (crosswise). Set aside.
  • Place one pork belly slice on a plate. Place one shiso leaf on top of the pork.
  • Roll it up tightly (if the rolls are loose it will come apart when cooking). Repeat until you've used all the pork belly and shiso. There should be 20 pieces.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, mirin, and sake. Set aside.
  • In a large pan over high heat, pan fry the rolled pork belly and shiso pieces until they are nicely browned on all sides. This should just take about 5 minutes.
  • Once browned, turn the heat to low and pour the sauce mixture into the pan. Let the sauce cook down and lightly coat the rolls.
  • Turn off the heat. Remove the rolls onto a plate. Top with chopped green onions and sesame seeds (optional). Drizzle on any extra sauce left in the pan. Eat hot and enjoy ^_^
