Part of this journey also involves trying different food items from different regions of the country. In a reel posted on Instagram, bits of the journey and glimpses of what Rahul Gandhi ate on the Bharat Jodo Yatra was revealed. Following is the run-down of all the dishes mentioned in the reel.
Bongu Chicken, Telangana
A delicious Telugu dish, bongu chicken is traditionally cooked inside a bamboo shoot. Flavoured with assorted chillies and spices, the dish is finger-licking good. The dish is native to the tribe of Badrachalam and is traditionally made by them. It seems that Rahul Gandhi had a fun time not just eating the dish but also making it.
Chilly Pakoda, Maharashtra
The Maharashtrian mirchi bhajji or chilly pakoda is a much-beloved dish throughout Maharashtra. Ask any pakoda vendor and you’ll find that mirchi bhajji is one of the most popular selling items they have. Looks like Rahul Gandhi got to experience some authentic Maharashtrian mirchi bhajji.
