My daughter start her kindergarten school this week , for full day which is she will stay at school since 9am to 4pm .. oh dear, even school is a pretty close to our home, but still i feel sad too.  Home feel so quite. Sometime i wish she wouldn't have grown up so fast but then i realize that is so selfish I am, she need to be grow as a young lady. :) 

Try to wake her up early and prepare everything for her is a new 'chaos' at home today, but after a week seem everything  going on the right track. No fighting between mom and daughter LOL.  And I find another interesting moment too, preparing her lunch box menu and snack !!  I never thought this is gonna be an interesting and exciting moment for me, and i learn from many 'bento' moms .  And next, all the bento products just drive me crazy, they are so cute !!!  oh my..

Cara membuat:
1. Potong sayap ayam, ambil bagian yg banyak dagingnya, kerat urat ujungnya, kumpulkan daging ayam pada bonggol sendi-nya sedemikian rupa sehingga bentuknya menjadi spt drum stick.
2. Campur semua bumbu halus, lalu ratakan pada sayam ayam. Diamkan lk. 15 menit.
3. Gulingkan sayap ayam pada tepung terigu, lalu celupkan di putih telur yang dikocok lepas supaya agak encer. Gulingkan lagi pada tepung tempura. Kepal-kepal agar tepung tempura menempel kuat. Bekukan dalam kulkas lk. 1 jam

1. Cut chicken drumlets, with sharp knives bring all the meat from the top to the bottom part of bone, and you will see it will look likes a drum stick.
2. Mixed all the spices + milk + chickens into the medium bowl. Set a side, +/- 15 minutes
3. Roll the drumstick into all purpose flour , than dipp into white egss, and last roll into tempura crumbs. squize little bit harder so all the crumb will stick together.  Keep it cold in the icebox for 1 hours - me : sometime I keep into several ziploc, frozen and when i need its easy to take out from freezer.
4. Fry it with medium heat or bake 350 F for 45 minutes.
5. Serve with ketchup.
