Bento#Oct07~Hello Kitty Swims

Hello everyone! How's everyone weekend? I'm sure you all had a great weekend right? Today's lunch will be "Hello Kitty Swims" ^_^ This time I just mixed the rice with Japanese sweet sauce with furikake. No porridge :p I want the Hello Kitty to be on top so if I cook porridge afraid might sink down :D

Here is the closer look of the Hello Kitty ^_^ After boiled the quail egg peel off the shell then rub the egg while still hot into ball shape. Next I cut into half, one for the head and the other half for body. Take another quail egg and cut the ears and legs ^_^ Freehand scissor cut out the nori for Kitty-chan face and eggyolk for nose (too tiny so won't  be able to have a nice cut). The swim float made of sweet bean curd skin or inari. Decorated with crab stick!

For side dishes: Pan fried seafood beancurd, broccoli wrap by inari, gyoza, plum and grapes.
Well, I hope you will like this simple lunch bento ^_^ Gosh.....don't you feel like jump to the pool right away after see my kawaii Kitty-chan swims? Haha...Happy Monday!

Bento#Oct04~Dinner Bento for ME!!!

Today I'm going to write a dinner post recipe that I've followed JustOneCookbook. I always wanted to try out her recipes so this time finally tried out her "Garlic Miso Chicken" I loved Miso soup but didn't know that Miso also can marinate with other meats :p So it makes me curious how's the taste like? Surprisingly was awesome!! Thanks to Nami ^_^ If you like to see the recipe please click HERE. I liked her blog as she will showed you the tutorial pictures and loved the way she posted! At her recipe, she used chicken wings but I used chicken breast meat and instead of oven baked, I used air fryer!!! The results was YUMMY!! 

Is quite a challenging tasks for me to design an adult bento and I would love to practice it ^_^ Hope you all will like it! After air fryer the "Garlic Miso Chicken", I sliced them and arranged on top of the rice (rice mixed with furikake) Each chicken slices, I add carrot flowers and cucumber leaves. For the silicon food cup, I add stir-fried Kai-Lan with mushroom and decorate cherry tomato roses ^_^ Bon appetit!
