Golden Hearts Cutlets as the name suggests is golden on the outer and soft on the inside. It is nutritious and goes well with rice/ any sandwich. I had all the veggies on hand and nothing could stop me from having these golden hearts at snack time. Believe or not it is not too oily perfectly light and has a cheesey bit. Say cheese and smile that’s all I can say.
It was that day when my brother in law and his children landed at our place for a vacation at the time of lent, the time of the year when we refrain from non vegetarian food, this was a perfect accompaniment with sauce and vegetable gravy and rice, they enjoyed every bit of it and no complaints too. We may like many things but what I like about these are that it is a perfect blend of all veggies put together and cheese which makes it delicious.
What makes these golden, well no prizes for the right answer. Yes you heard it right golden corn for the golden crusty connection. Perfect for that hearty connection 😉
