GORDON RAMSAY (VOICEOVER): It's the day of the final cook,
-
and I should be getting my fires going.
-
Good morning.
-
WOMAN: Good morning, Gordon.
-
How are we?
-
Mrs. [inaudible], how are you?
-
GORDON RAMSAY (VOICEOVER): But I have a lead on one
-
more special ingredient that I'm told can be harvested nearby.
-
What is this secret ingredient?
-
[non-english speech]
-
She's making a chutney out of the weaver ant.
-
It's a delicacy.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: Weaver ants? WOMAN: Yes.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: Right. WOMAN: Yeah.
-
It's spicy.
-
It's salty, and it's sour.
-
That sounds like a unique chutney.
-
WOMAN: Yeah. [inaudible]
-
And where are these ants?
-
Right up there.
-
That's what we were looking at.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: What?
-
WOMAN: [non-english speech]
-
OK, she says that he is going to shimmy up that tree,
-
lop that branch off, drop the ants down.
-
Right.
-
And fill it into a-- a [inaudible]..
-
GORDON RAMSAY: Do we have a rope for him?
-
This this-- is the ladder that he's going to use.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: Ladder?
-
It's like a bamboo stick.
-
WOMAN: Yeah.
-
Be careful.
-
And are you sure that bamboo is strong enough?
-
It's-- it's definitely strong enough for him.
-
It's not even tied onto the trees.
-
Bloody hell.
-
This is crazy.
-
I mean, really crazy.
-
[bleep]
-
WOMAN: There.
-
He is already on the tree now.
-
He's on the tree.
-
WOMAN: He's getting it.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: Wow.
-
Yeah.
-
[bleep]
-
WOMAN: They know the hills.
-
They know the jungles.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: Yes.
-
WOMAN: They're very, very good at this.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: That is incredible.
-
What a performance, getting the ants.
-
I mean, you know, I'll go to hell
-
and back, you know, to get the best ingredients,
-
but that is a different ballgame.
-
- [non-english]. - Thank you.
-
Good.
-
Oh, gosh.
-
Watch it, watch it, watch it.
-
Get it.
-
- Wait, wait, wait. - Go, go, go, go.
-
Let me come left.
-
[bleep]
-
WOMAN: OK.
-
Can you go to the right? No, no.
-
Come left. Come left.
-
WOMAN: [non-english]
-
GORDON RAMSAY (VOICEOVER): I look
-
like I'm attempting the most awkward TikTok dance ever.
-
[bleep]
-
Get it, get it, get it.
-
Damn.
-
[bleep]
-
Bloody hell. - Hold it.
-
Hold it, hold.
-
That bag, you know, and you're swaying left to right.
-
Bang. I missed it.
-
Shake it up.
-
Shake it up.
-
Shake.
-
Damn!
-
And then all of a sudden, they're everywhere.
-
[bleep]
-
Man.
-
And just when you think you've got the last one,
-
you put your hands in your pockets, they're in there.
-
I must have been bitten 50, 60 times.
-
[bleep] hell.
-
This is a true ants in the pants situation, no?
-
This is definitely ants in the pants.
-
[bleep]
-
- So there we are. - Ah, you bastard.
-
[non-english speech]
-
- She's putting salt in this. - Salt?
-
[bleep]
-
Yeah, we're salting the ants now.
-
Yes.
-
[bleep]
-
- [inaudible] - Yep.
-
You got to shake it up.
-
Those ants are eating me before I eat them.
-
[non-english speech]
-
OK, that's enough.
-
[bleep].
-
I think I've got half of the ants in my pants.
-
Bloody hell.
-
My goodness me.
-
WOMAN: So we just pick out any dust.
-
Now, these little bits there, the white bits--
-
that's the larva, right? - That's the larva.
-
That's the-- that's the eggs?
-
Yeah.
-
GORDON RAMSAY (VOICEOVER): While most of the ants
-
are making a meal of my nether region,
-
the rest are getting chucked into the chutney.
-
First, you have to put the coconut--
-
- All? - --in the [inaudible] coconut.
-
All the coconut?
-
Everything.
-
GORDON RAMSAY (VOICEOVER): To make the chutney, we mix
-
coconut, garlic, salt, coriander seeds, and, of course,
-
chili powder.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: All of it?
-
WOMAN: Yeah.
-
GORDON RAMSAY (VOICEOVER): Then we add the ants,
-
some water, and grind.
-
Watch that you don't smash your fingers.
-
Yeah.
-
[non-english speech]
-
You're doing good, she says.
-
Wow.
-
Mm.
-
Wow.
-
It's delicious.
-
Oh, lovely.
-
GORDON RAMSAY: It's very fresh.
-
Yes.
-
Vibrant chutney.
-
I love chutneys.
-
That, for me, has to be the most fragrant, slightly bitter,
-
but with the addition of that coconut meal in there--
-
mm, delicious.
-
What a delicacy, and, for me, a great addition
-
to my final meal.
-
I don't think these ladies are expecting that from me today,
-
so a little ace card up my sleeve, fingers crossed.
