Mickey,Minnie,Donald & Daisy Tsum Tsum

I am in love with the Disney TSUM TSUM series, they are simply so adorable. Finally managed to make some more of these cuties. My first set was Pooh and friends, did a step-by-step to make Pooh then, click HERE if you want to see that post.

This time, I decided to make Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy. I took some step-by-step photos on how to make Mickey and Donald, hope you find them useful. :)

Served a pot of chicken milk stew as the side dish, ingredients were chicken, broccoli, mushrooms and carrots. :)

I wish I have the time to make many TSUM TSUM at one go, it will be really cute to see so many of them stack onto one another.

I only make step-by-step on how to make Mickey.

And also Donald, details are below.

I'll start off with Mickey. First, colour rice with some ketchup.

IMG_1587
Shape Mickey's body and ears using cling wrap.

IMG_1588
Fold seaweed in half and cut out the shape as shown in the picture above.

IMG_1589
Place seaweed on rice ball.

IMG_1593
Wrap rice ball in cling wrap to secure the nori well.

IMG_1605
Punch out ovals for Mickey's eyes. I used the ovals on this paw puncher.

IMG_1606
Remove red portion of crabstick using a toothpick and wrap around Mickey's body.

IMG_1590
Wrap the ears with nori, make some cuts at the 4 corners of the nori before wrapping. Wrap with cling wrap and secure it well.

IMG_1610
Secure Mickey's ears using pasta. The pasta is uncooked, it will absorb the moisture from the rice and soften after sometime. However, if you are going to eat this immediately, please use fried pasta instead. Dab on some blusher on Mickey's cheeks using decor gel.

IMG_1591
To make Donald Duck, I used this Deco Furi from Daiso to colour the rice blue. It's more convenient when you only want a small portion of your rice blue. Other ways to colour your rice blue includes using the water from butterfly pea flower, purple cabbage (with a bit of baking soda added) or food coloring to cook your rice.

IMG_1592
Using cling wrap, mould Donald's body using blue and white rice, also mould a small rice ball for his cap.

IMG_1594
Join the white and blue rice together to form Donald's body.

IMG_1597
Wrap with cling wrap and mould them together.

IMG_1607
Cut out nori for Donald's cap.

IMG_1608
I used this puncher for the Donald's eyes. Cut out oval for Donald's bill using capsicum, attach onto rice ball using pasta.

IMG_1611
Dab on blusher using some pink decor gel. I used a pick for Donald's bow tie.

IMG_1620
Ta-dah, the completed pair. :) Have a good weekend, will be back again to update next week. :)

Mickey Loves Minnie Valentines Bento

I came across some really cute Mickey and Minnie Valentines card while surfing for Valentines ideas. I love two of the designs, I made one of the design today. I will make the other one another time, maybe next Valentine's day, lol. :P

IMG_2760
This is quite an up to date post, made this for dinner today. I was planning to make a toast version today too, but LT had a dental appointment today, and the wait was too long, had no time to make one.

IMG_2766
Mickey and Minnie are exchanging Valentines gifts, Minnie bought a box of chocolates and Mickey has a bouquet of flowers for her.

IMG_2764
Ingredients used for Mickey and Minnie were rice, nori, capsicum (yellow and red), cheese and strawberry. I'm sharing the seaweed pork rolls recipe below (the ones in the heart food cups), they still taste good when cold, so they're perfect for packing into bentos.

SEAWEED PORK ROLL RECIPE

Ingredients:
15 slices shabu shabu pork
15 slices Japanese seaweed
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp soya sauce
1 tbsp mirin
Flour/egg/panko(japanese breadcrumbs) for coating

Method:
  1. Season pork slices with salt, soya sauce and mirin.
  2. IMG_2753
  3. Place a slice of seaweed on top of a slice of pork.
  4. IMG_2754
  5. Roll up the pork/seaweed.
  6. IMG_2755
  7. Coat pork roll in flour, followed by egg and finally with panko. 
  8. Deep fry or shallow fry till golden brown.
  9. IMG_2769
Note:
  • You can also add in additional cheese or cod roe fillings. Simply place some cheese or cod roe on top of the end of seaweed that you start rolling from . 
  • Panko can be replaced with breadcrumbs.

Mickey & Minnie Easter Egg Bento

I was looking around for Easter inspiration the other day and came across some pictures of Easter decorations at Tokyo Disneyland. They had lots of Disney characters in the form of Easter eggs, and I was attracted by how cute they looked! And the inspiration for the bentos I'm sharing today are from those Disney Easter eggs I saw.

IMG_4847
I made this for my boys' lunch on Tuesday, this is a 1L box, so they shared the food. Mickey and Minnie Mouse Easter eggs, made from rice, nori, crabstick and cheese. Bento is packed with broccoli, coriander wings, grapes and strawberries.

IMG_4845
I changed my mind and decided to add in ears for Mickey and Minnie. :P

IMG_4859
And this was my boys' lunch for Wednesday. They had sakura somen, quail eggs, broccoli, gyoza and strawberries.
