India’s red-ant chutney makes it to celeb-chef Gordon Ramsay’s new menu

Two famous tribal food items from Bastar in Indian state Chhattisgarh – namely Chapda chutney and Dona Pudga – have made it to celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s menu.. Apparently the British cook loved them so much during his trip to India that he decided to bring them home, reports Business Standard.

For the uninitiated, chapda chutney is chutney made out of red ants, considered not only healthy but also good for keeping diseases at bay. The other dish, Dona Pudga, is a dish that has chicken seasoned with basic spices, wrapped in a leaf and roasted over fire. No oil is used in the cooking.
