Bento Mania #27
If you think the checkered apple is tedious, you should try making this sunflower sausage (just simply name them. 😳 ). This is how you do it:
Step one is like this…
The pressure you put on the knife while cutting has to be even. If not, you will get this result:
Can you imagine how frustrated I am when out of 12 pcs of frankfurt only one is perfect? The rest kept on breaking when I curl them. Step 2 should look like this:
Fasten both end with toothpick.
Step 3 – Heat a little olive oil in frying pan. Brown one side of the sausage, flip them over and break a quail egg on the centre. Reduce flame if you want a well-done egg. The finishing product looks like this:
Using a fork (in my case, I used my hand!), remove gently the excessed egg at the surrounding.
The Princess bento. I filled up the empty space with a cup of cornflakes.
This is how I shaped the rice.
Sprinkle a little furikake on the top or dab all over the rice.
The Prince bento looks like this (without the cornflakes as everything fit in nicely):
The sunflower sausage is a bit cacat because it is faulty. On the right is sun-dried pineapple. They are very delicious! Wuching courier them to me all the way from Melbourne.
Itu je. Too lazy to have lengthy post today. Maybe I will experiment with Weiner the next time. The frankfurter seems to be a bit soft and too fragile.

The sunflower sausage looks good….i don’t think it is cacat, as long as it is created with a load of LOVE 🙂

Where do you get the patience to do this? But it’s really nice….do your kids know what to expect each time or each one is a surprise?

Hey, thanx for posting the step-by-step how to make the sunflower sausage. When I read in others blogger’s blog, I kept wondering how to do this. Ah… finally I know now and I am going to do it for my kids this coming weekend. It is just so lovely.

hey..
fun concept.. not a huge hotdog fan but once and a while they can be fun.. i think this would be even a touch more appealing to me if it was perched up on a nice peice of toast with some ‘stuff’ on it!
take care and keep making wonderful things!

Haha, that’s so cute. How creative. I love the egg in the middle too. I’d love to find that in my bento box!
