Hello World, hope you had ample rest during the long Easter weekend. I did this “Hello Panda” bento over the weekends and I am so excited to share it with you (because there is a giveaway!).

J-Mama & Baby has kindly sponsored this pack of cute moulds. I took a long time to collect it from the post office hence it took me a lil longer to experiment with it. I like this panda mould because its mouth is an empty hole and I can cook a dish and add it in so that the rice will taste more flavourful.

If you are wondering how I did it, here’s a step by step guide for your reference:

1. Wet the mould. Place warm short grain rice into the mould.

2. Pack it tight.

3. Press down the panda cover tightly.

4. Remove the round mould.

6. Place it carefully into a bento box.

7. I have cooked some minced meat with black beans. So I placed some minced meat into the panda’s mouth.

8. Use nori to make the eyes.

9. And I place cooked black beans as the panda’s ears.

TA-DEH! Decorate it with all my favourite vegetables and I am ready to eat them all!
Inside the box: lettuce leaf, cherry tomatoes, rice, nori, black beans, minced meat, long beans, cauliflower, ngo hiang.
If you want to make bento for your kids, you can visit J-Mama & Baby website. I know there a lot of online bento shops around, but I chose J-Mama & Baby because it is based in Singapore, so I don’t have to wait for a long time before my bento arrives to my doorstep.
