My journey into bento lunch boxes
In: General
11 Jan 2009
I usually make my bento lunches on the fly, but this one took a little planning. I picked up some satay (grilled skewered meats) from what has to be the best satay stall in Kuala Lumpur one evening in preparation for the next day’s lunch.
In the morning, I re-heated the satay sticks (beef and chicken) and cut off the long ends of the bamboo skewers to fit my lock n lock lunch box. Then, I set the satay on a bed of white rice, and served it with fresh greens and tomatoes and a hard boiled egg. The spicy peanut sauce was ladled over the satay before I closed the box but that did not make a good picture – it made an absolutely delicious lunch though!
