「6種常備食材X媽媽愛的佳餚!」Hippomum's recipe~Spanish Tortilla (pg.20) with My Melody

『6種常備食材x媽媽愛的佳餚』 Spanish Tortilla西班牙烘蛋 Pg.20
Finally I have the time to try out Hippomum's new recipe book ^_^ I've bought through online website as I can't wait for our local bookstore also afraid out of stocks.....so pay extra to get her new released 2nd recipes book!! And surprisingly the book arrived after 2 weeks of online ordered ^_^ So why took me so long to try out? Well.....I like to show you the steps by steps of what I've done by following Hippomum's recipe. To do this need "TIME" to taking pictures etc.....
Before I start to continue writing....let me showed you Hippomum's new book!! If you can understand Chinese, I highly recommend to have a copy at home :) Simple ingredients and easy steps to learn! 
Okay! Today as usual I'm cooking dinner for my family so I looked through the pages and decided to try out the "Spanish Tortilla西班牙烘蛋" I didn't follow all the ingredients from the book but quite similar and I add extra such as taiwanese sausage, broccoli, yellow cherry tomato for it :p Looks yummy right? Just nice to accompany with a bowl of rice! Hehe..... so let me show you the simple steps below......
Stir-fried all the ingredients! Well, I don't have the capsicum so I replaced broccoli and carrots :)
 Beat the eggs and pour the 1st picture ingredients into the bowl and mixed well :)
Next, pour to the bakeware and add cherry tomato on top plus cheese powder. 
Baked for 20-25 minutes at 200°C or till golden brown. Is best to check them as different oven will be different function.
Ta-da.....after cut into cube!! Well, I didn't check the oven and let it baked....so the cheese top part slightly darker brown :( I was cooking other dishes so miss out checking them....*sigh* The picture above I arranged the darker part bottom :p
  To match with Hippomum's Spanish Tortilla, I made a simple My Melody kyaraben ^_^ 
A closer look of the My Melody Kyaraben! Before making the kyaraben, I add rice into the cup and arranged the vegies, carrots, straw mushrooms and lastly rice again. Fried pork chop with breadcrumbs arranged on top of the rice and lastly add the My Melody using rice mold to mold it. Add cucumber leaves next to it for better results! 
  Well, I hope you will enjoy reading it and like My Melody kyaraben as well as Hippomum's recipes ^_^ Don't forget to check out her wonderful page from Facebook or her blogs! Click this LINK for the 「6 種常備食材╳媽媽愛的佳餚!」

Bento#Aug13~Hello Kitty Qixi Festival

<3 Hello Kitty Qixi Festival <3
Hello everyone ^_^ Did you all miss me or my bento? I really missed bento-ing so today specially made bento for "Happy Chinese Valentine's Day" or "Qixi Festival七夕情人节" theme. My kids summer school holidays still on and they will be back to school on early September. In the meantime, I'll make lunch/dinner bento for my girl :) As you can see in this bento box.....all belongs to her favourite character~Hello Kitty~
A closer look of the lovely Hello Kitty kyaraben ^_^ Just made two rice balls and wrap with nori for hair. Freehand cut out the details and do you notice why I add Kitty-chan bottom lashes? The reason I add bottom lashes because I saw it from the Kitty-chan pictures or poster in Osaka. Kawaii right? Hehe....I told my hubby when I'm back bento-ing will add bottom lashes for my kitty-chan ^_^ *wink* 
Side view of the Hello Kitty Qixi Festival Bento :p This is also my new bento box bought in Osaka! Hmm....all using new bento tools!!! Too many nice bento stuffs in Osaka compare to my last year Japan trip in Tokyo ^_^ 
I hope you will like today's bento and will try to update my visit to Bento & Co Kyoto trip. Give me some time to sort out the hundreds of pictures I've took :p 

Cheers!

Bento#July26~Geisha Gion Matsuri

~Geisha Kyaraben~
Recently saw Bento & Co posted many photos about Gion Matsuri Festival in Kyoto. It makes me feeling excited and can't wait to visit Kyoto and Osaka for my family trips! Kids are counting the days because this is their second trips taking airplane to oversea since Hong Kong in year 2009. Well, no joke for paying the high cost for a family trips especially taking airplane to oversea. This time my son and daughter have grown up (better than 4 years ago) They should be able to follow us and most importantly "WALKING" around ^_^

Okay, back to Gion Matsuri Festival. I made Geisha kyaraben and arranged to this beautiful Kokeishi Bento box. Gosh....how I wish could get the latest new Kokeishi Bento box too :p 
Don't they look lovely? Hehe....I'm sure some of you already saw Bento & Co. posted at Facebook page. Do check out their link for more information! Gosh....too pretty so I like to share it here and also I'm honor that Bento & Co. sharing some of my bentos at their Facebook page ^_^ Some Bento & Co. bento items on sale for 25% discount until 30th July 2013. Hurry check them out!!
For Geisha head, I added cheese inside to made onigiri and her body I mixed the rice with Mizkan Osushi Pink. Next, I made three small onigiri wrap with nori for hair buns then decorate with crabstick and cheese. Freehand scissor cut out nori for eyes and lashes then add tiny crabstick for white eye balls. Just a simple hair decoration and kimono for Geisha :p
For side dishes have chicken drumstick, stir-fried vegies and tamagoyaki rolled with ham/cheese/nori. Opps....I missed out the fruits =_="
~Geisha Kyaraben~
