"We Are Aliens From Outer Space..."

These are decoratively cut wiener sausages. The other day my daughter was in a really bad mood during breakfast and wasn't touching her food at all, so I made these to cheer her up.

I just wanted to make my family laugh! I thought I was making 'aliens' but my kids both say they look more like octopuses. They'll look great in your bento. Recipe by chikappe

Ingredients

1 serving
  1. 1Wiener sausages, as many as you'd like
  2. 1Oil
  3. 2times the number of sausages, Black sesame seeds

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Make cuts into the sausages. If you don't want to bother too much with the mouths, just make a straight cut.

  2. 2

    Pan fry the sausages in a frying pan with a little oil. The straight hands and legs will spread out in the heat. When the sausages are nicely cooked, take them out of the pan.

  3. 3

    Make holes for the eyes with a blunt end of a toothpick. Once you poke in sesame seeds in the eye holes, they are done.

  4. 4

    I also made skinny aliens out of sausages sliced in half lengthwise, for the kids.

  5. 5

    The aliens invaded my son's bento. It's been a while since I've made these. I put some in my husband's bento too, and he said, "Our eyes met..."
