Abstract
Children"s low consumption of fruit and vegetables have been a concern in Indonesia. Even until recently, Indonesia still cannot fulfil the recommended fruit and vegetables consumption per capita. A survey done in four elementary schools in Central Java revealed that approximately 45,6% of the children do not consume vegetables daily and approximately 1,6% students has never eaten vegetables. This may lead to a lot of health problems. To overcome this problem innovations are needed. One of the innovations that can be done is the addition of vegetables into extruded snack products which are children"s favorite snacks. Extruded snacks from rice and vegetables were made with different vegetables concentrations (0%, 5%, 10% and 20%) . Vegetables used were carrot and cassava leaves which is a rich source of beta-carotene . Based on the results, as the concentration of vegetables increased, the physical quality , such as texture and color of the extrudates decreased. Based on the physical characteristics and the beta-carotene conten of the extrudates, it can be concluded that the optimum concentration for carrot and cassava leaves addition was 15% and 10%, respectively. With the addition of 15% carrot and 10% cassava leaves, the beta-carotene increased 13 time and 22 times, respectively, without significantly altered the physical characteristics of the extrudates. The amount of beta-carotene in 100 grams of 15% carrot extrudates fulfil 18% of vitamin A RDI and 100 grams of 10% cassava leaves extrudates fulfil 29% of vitamin A RDI.
