Gundu Chillies – Bold Heat, Rich Aroma, Authentic Indian Flavour
Gundu Chillies—also known as Round Chillies, Ramnad Mundu, or Gol Mirch—are one of South India’s most iconic and flavour-rich spices. Popular in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Andhra-style cooking, these round red chillies are famous for their deep colour, medium heat, smoky aroma, and bold flavour profile. Whether you run a home kitchen, restaurant, cloud kitchen, or food business, Gundu Chillies deliver an unmatched authenticity to your dishes.
What Makes Round Chillies Special?
Gundu Chillies are known for their round shape, vibrant red colour, and moderate pungency. Unlike long red chillies that offer sharp heat, Gundu Chillies provide a balanced spice level with a pleasant, lingering warmth. Their unique aroma and flavour elevate both traditional and modern recipes, making them a favourite ingredient across India.
These chillies are sourced from trusted farms and dried naturally to retain freshness, colour and nutrients. They grind beautifully, giving you a rich red chilli powder perfect for sambars, curries, podis, pickles, and marinades.
