[Japanese Recipes] Enoki Mushroom and Bacon Rolls

A yakitori classic! Grilled and skewered, Enoki Mushroom and Bacon Rolls is one very popular dish you’ll find in all yakitori bars in Japan. Though I love these chewy mushroom rolls, sometimes I find them hard to eat because of the amount of enoki used – too much of it takes forever to chew on! So I’m using less for my take on this classic Japanese recipe, and working in a variation of veggies: Orange bell peppers and scallions for today. I’m also using an oven and no skewers since I don’t own a grill.

You can easily substitute this enoki bacon roll recipe with other vegetables to create a fun, kid friendly dinner! Making colorful and tasty bites like these are great for kids because the veggies are hidden – the aroma of the cooked bacon is what will get their attention and let’s face it; who doesn’t like bacon! Use one slice per roll if you want to make the dish healthier. They also make great appetizers when served with other yakitori classics like tsukune and fried chicken (served warm or cold). Plant a toothpick in each bite and you’ve got yourself a unique conversation starter plate your friends and family will remember.
