Kids Bento ~ Sausage Octopus & Omelette Cheese Rolls

Today after Mummy fetched both Issac and Annabelle, and after had my fast dinner for myself, as both of them had taken theirs at the Nursey.

I tried out something new snacks for them : sausage octopus and omelette cheese rolls. I learned the sausage octopus from internet Youtube.

All you have to do is slice the ends off of a couple hot dogs, make six slits in the bottom, and brown the suckers in hot oil.

As they cook, the little “legs” naturally start to curl, and when you turn the sausages to brown all sides, the legs bloom outwards in octopus-y fashion. Very cool.

But I did not use the hot oil, instead I boiled the sausages in hot water, the “legs” start to curl as well.

Then, I suppose to use cheese slices to make a hair band on every each of the octopus. But due to the sausages were still hot, the cheese melted! It became so funny!

As for the omelette, heat the frying pan, then pour in the beaten egg and over low heat cook it over until done.

After which, transfer to a cutting board. I just put a slice of cheese on top, and start to roll the egg from left to right.

And, slice it into bite-size pieces. The cheese also melted!

I quickly put into the bento box, and put some pre-cut flower shape carrots. The bento turned out to be “really really funny” or “disaster” !

I prepared some ham cheese sandwich for the kids too. But in the end both Issac and Annabelle also finished up the sausages and omelette.
