Advantages: Delicious simple tasty kebabs, only 10 mins marinating time!

Disadvantages: The British weather most certainly!

BACON AND MUSHROOM KEBABS

As we rapidly approach the end of April, Easter holidays and Easter eggs all under our belt my thoughts turn to May. May Bank Holidays to be more precise. There are only 20 working days in May if youre lucky enough to not work weekends or Bank Holidays.
Undoubtedly the weather will be poor.
Undoubtedly a huge percentage of us will be attempting DIY.
Undoubtedly we shall battle against the elements and the BBQ will be aired!

Now, not being a huge fan of black, hard, unedible sausages or burgers(funnily enough) I always think of the kebab as the posh persons BBQ favourite!
And who doesnt like good old British Mushrooms and Bacon? ....

Ingredients to make 4-6 skewers

15ml/1tbsp olive oil

15ml/1tbsp wholegrain mustard

15ml/1tbsp clear honey

1 large yellow pepper, seeds out and chunked

6 rashers of smoked streaky bacon

salt and ground black pepper

Method:

Soak the bamboo skewers in water to prevent them burning.
In a large bowl mix together the oil, mustard and honey with a little salt and plenty of ground black pepper. Add the mushrooms and pepper and toss to mix.
Leave to marinate for 10 mins.

Cut the rashers of bacon in half and roll.

Thread a piece of pepper, mushroom then bacon roll onto the skewers.

Brush any remaining marinade over the kebabs.

Cook on the BBQ for about 10 mins, turning the kebabs so that they are golden brown (not black) on all sides.

Enjoy..

Alternatively cook under the grill if weather so dictates!

Summary: Rain or shine. BBQ or Grill
