- Place the cut carrots and green beans into a microwave safe bowl with water and microwave for 2-3 minutes to prepare them.
- Cut the Japanese leeks into 5-6 mm thin pieces.
- Butterfly the chicken breast, spread out the salted rice malt, and let it sit in the fridge for 1 hour overnight.
- Cover it with plastic wrap or put it into a plastic bag to keep it from drying out.
- Place step 2 onto a large piece of plastic wrap, cover with the ingredients as shown in the photo, and roll it up.
- Placing the ingredients at a bit of an angle will make them easier to roll up.
- Grab hold of both ends after rolling it up, and cover with plastic wrap while rolling it up.

- Like this.
