Sesame Bread fingers is a great snack or starter and also serves as a wonderful tiffin box option for kids and finger food for toddlers. I first came across this recipe on a Tarla Dalal website and it was an instant hit when I prepared it. After the first success, I repeated it several times and every time it was liked by family and friends alike.
You can use a combination of veggies which your kid does not enjoy in the direct form, so it serves as a great way to feed veggies to fussy eaters.
