Lee Kum Kee Ketchup Bento

Lee Kum Kee has just launched 3 products in major supermarkets like Giant and Cold storage. The 3 products are tomato ketchup, pure sesame oil and Chu Hou paste. The bentos I'm sharing for the next few days will be made using these products.

Here are the 3 sauces I received from Lee Kum Kee. You will be happy to know that Lee Kum Kee also printed some recipe cards which you can pick up from the supermarkets.

Here's my bento, inspired by Lee Kum Kee tomato ketchup. Ketchup is quite useful in charaben, as shown in my bento above, it can be used to colour the rice and as blusher for your characters' cheeks.

I also cooked ketchup meatballs for this bento and I'm sharing the recipe below. :)
