Kushi – Green Asparagus Kebabs Wrapped in Bacon with Radish Soy Sauce

Peel the asparagus and cut off the woody ends. Cook in boiling salted water. Then lift the asparagus out of the water with a slotted spoon, cool with ice-cold water and pat dry with a towel. Wrap the thinly sliced bacon around the asparagus, cut into 4 cm long pieces and place on the skewer. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the asparagus skewers on both sides over a medium flame. Mix the grated radish, soy sauce and the lemon juice in a bowl. Add the thinly sliced peppers. Serve with the kebabs as a dip.
