This bacon-wrapped pan-friend mochi is SO good! 🤯 It’s made with kirimochi (cut mochi) that’s pan-fried, wrapped in bacon, and smothered in a sweet and savory soy-based glaze. If you’ve ever had senbei (Japanese rice crackers) with that sweet and savory soy sauce kind of coating, that’s the kind of flavor you get with these, but the chewy mochi texture and crispy bacon takes it to another level. If it’s too salty for you with the bacon, I still recommend you try JUST the pan-fried kirimochi with the sauce! Would you try them?? Let me know in the comments what you think if you do! 🙌 INGREDIENTS 5 kirimochi pieces 5 bacon strips 4 tbsp soy sauce 4 tbsp sugar 4 tbsp mirin INSTRUCTIONS 1️⃣ Over medium heat, lightly oil a pan and place the kirimochi in. Cook and flip every couple minutes until each side get’s crispy and slightly browns. The mochi should also soften on the inside. Remove from the pan and set aside. 2️⃣ Let them cool for a few minutes, and once you can pick them up, wrap each one in a strip of bacon. I used thick cut, but I may actually try the thinner bacon next time so it gets extra crispy. 3️⃣ Place the bacon-wrapped mochi back into the pan and cook and flip every couple minutes until the bacon cooks through. Remove and set aside. 4️⃣ In a small sauce pan over medium-low heat, add the soy sauce, sugar, and mirin. Stir to combine, and continue to stir occasionally until the sauce really starts to bubble up and thicken (see video). Turn off the heat and toss the bacon-wrapped mochi in the thickened sauce. 5️⃣ Enjoy! LTKHome LTKParties LTKFamily
