Buta To Enoki Maki (Enoki Mushrooms Wrapped in Pork Belly)

I once saw this made on a tiktok, couldn't believe how easy it was and knew I had to make it.

Buta To Enoki Maki (Enoki Mushrooms Wrapped in Pork Belly)

I remember during one of my late night TikTok scrolls, I came across this guy living alone in Japan. He’d film his simple dinner prep after a long day at work. I watched him whip up this dish in his tiny kitchen, and it looked so tasty, I knew I had to try making it.

So when I saw a recipe for it in the book, I made plans to cook it early on, and it did not disappoint.

Also, it’s a great way to use up leftover enoki mushrooms if you’ve just made Kinoko Takikomi Gohan (Mixed Mushroom Rice Bowl).
