Morning Rush...Bento 8

These are the kids' bento... was a mad scramble this morning. Got up late cos sleep was disrupted by Son's alarm clock which went off at 4++ a.m. in the morning. Kononnya, wanted to get up early to study. In the end, I laid on the bed and listened to that irritating bell for 10 minutes before getting up to switch it off. The spirit is willing...... give him that much credit. 8)

Daughter's bento.

Good thing I cooked the 'tau-yu-bak' after church yesterday night. And sis-in-law had already put in the rice to steam. Vegetables just throw in before the rice cooked. So, still managed-lah. The 'tau-yu-bak' is my mom's recipe...instead of frying the garlic in oil, I put in the sugar and garlic into the claypot. Then wait for it to caramelized (with the garlic)....the smell is fantastic. Then throw in the meat, add water....and all the other ingredients and leave the whole pot to simmer slowly. Simple and fast and has a nice smell.
