Little Lunch Box #36
小饭盒


Another simple lunch for the kids. This mum is getting lazy. :P

I bought the fishy 'fish cake' and the squarish 'fish tofu' from the wet market's yong tau foo stall. I sliced them into half, steamed them and use them to top the rice that's mixed with furikake. Those in the middle are sausages, by the way.

I bought them miso soup too to go with these. ;)

  1. Hi Elaine
    I think I want to try this for my girl's kindergarten party. But I dont know how I can do this? Can you share some tips:
    - where to get furikake in singapore?
    - do you use japanese rice or normal Thai rice?
    - how do you get the seaweed to stick together?
    - how do I shape the rice ball evenly for the fish sushi?

    Sorry for so many questions as I am not an expert in cooking.

    Thanks,
    Seasons

    1. You can get furikake from Supermarkets like NTUC, Cold Storage, Gaint, etc. Daiso has them too.

      I'm using normal Thai rice. Just add a bit more water to cook the rice and it will be moist and sticky enough to shape.

      You can use a grain of cook rice to stick the seaweed together. However for the case of the "gift box" I didn't do it. the seaweed sticked to the rice.

      THe rice ball is not exactly the same unless you are using a mould. If you want to do that, you can get a rice mould from Daiso, then each rice ball will be of the same size and shape.

      Hope this helps.
