Vegetable Gold Coin is a bread based snack that has toppings of boiled mix vegetables, both deep fried together. A good way of feeding kids lots vegetables with minimum effort is the best part of this recipe. The base of bread fried together adds to crunch and taste to the recipe.

Vegetable Gold Coins trigger the day when both my elder Sister & I were down with typhoid and our aunt had visited us. I wanted to eat Gold Coins that day.

Bread based snacks are enjoyed by all age groups. A variety of snacks like Panjiri, Moong Dal Cheela and Grilled Stuffed Capsicum are on the blog.

My parents understood that feeding rich and fried food wouldn’t get approval from anyone visiting sick children. So they were smuggled-in to us. What adventurous lives we led as kids!

So now each time I eat them, or want to eat them, I remember that day and how exciting it was for us kids.

My mother made them for me when I was visiting. Vegetable Gold Coins are actually quite simple to make. They are also perfect for kids with lots of vegetables hidden and presented well.

The only side effect is deep frying. I am thinking of baking them next time. May be the guilt trip will be less.

I suggest using a big sandwich loaf to get good shape and size slices or even cut two small rings from one slice.

Since we made it in summers, the colors of the vegetables are not perfect. I strongly recommend making it in winters when all the colorful veggies are in season.

  1. Wow the gold coins looks so yumm

  2. Yummmm! Tasty savoury bites! What is Amchoor?

    1. Amchoor is Dry Mango Powder. A very common spice in India to lend little sour taste to food. You can use lemon juice as well to replace.

  3. This is an interesting snack and am sure it would delight any kid… Thanks for linking it to the event.
