Grilled Quail Egg Wrapped in Bacon

Grilled Quail Egg Wrapped in Bacon

This is a recipe that I will never think of until I dine in Ichiban (A Japanese Restaurant in Singapore).

That day was my secondary school friend's birthday and we went to Ichiban for dinner. One of my friends ordered this and I am surprised of the combination; Quail Egg and Bacon? After giving it a try, I decided that I will make this one day.

I love bacon as the flavoured taste of bacon minimise the need to add in more seasoning to the ingredients.

This dish look exquisite but yet, it is so simple to cook.

It will definitely look great for a party, in a intimate event or just as an appetizer before the main course.

Ingredients

1. 6 Quail Eggs
2. 6 Bacon (Cut into 3/4 or enough to roll the quail egg)

Preparation

1. Boil Quail Eggs for approx 10 minutes
2. Deshell Quail Eggs

Steps

1. Spread Bacon on hot pan without oil. Flip after approx 1 minutes, before the side turn brown. Remove it from the pan.
2. Wrap Bacon around Quail Egg and secure it using a Satay Stick
3. Place them into Preheat Oven, Grilled Function for approx 15 minutes

Serve while hot!

Good as a finger food in a party or as a side or starter before the main course.

Tips and Comments:

• Pan-fry bacon before grilled to "force" out the bacon's taste and the bacon texture will be crispier than direct grilling.
• Do not add Oil on hot pan when pan-frying bacon as bacon contained fats strip
