Hi there
Planning to make some cute looking food to entice your kid to eat?
I have just the one and easy method to perk up your kids breakfast. Okay I know hotdog isn’t exactly nutritious food but hey moderation is the key right? 🙂
And in Japanese bento or lunch box, hot dog is one of the most versatile ingredients as it can make into many shapes. Take for example in this post I will make squid or octopus 🙂 It cannot be simplier than this.
All you need is : (make two squid)
- Sausage x 1
- Seaweed or black sesame x 2
- Mayo or ketchup x 2 drop literally
Directions
- Cut the sausage in half.
- Put a cross incision at the flat side of the sausage
- Boil it in hot boiling water and the tentacles will split once it is immersed in hot boiling water 🙂
- Once cooked, cool down n squeeze mayo / ketchup / cheese with seaweed or black sesame as the eyeball
My son eyes brighten up when he sees this and I am pretty sure yours will to when they see how cute it can be. If you want to add more tentacles just made more incisions.
Although didn’t make any fancy stuff for the breakfast, but just a waffle with some scrambled eggs and a cute hot dog octopus is all it takes for him to gobbled up. 🙂
