    Sukku coffee recipe, sukku malli kaapi

    March 15, 2016 by Raks Anand 20 Comments / Jump to Recipe

    sukku coffee recipe

    Sukku coffee is an appetizing and flavourful drink made with dry ginger and coriander seeds. Aids digestion and helps with loss of appetite.

    I always make sukku coffee without roasting and with just two main  ingredients. Very easy method and very refreshing drink. This is best home remedy for loss of appetite, indigestion, gastric problems etc. I have already posted another version with fresh ginger, this is also a similar one with dry ginger. This also helps in healthy weight loss if you have indigestion problems, through which you retain weight. You can have thrice a week, as too much can hurt your tummy.

    I felt like having this sukku kaapi last weekend after I bought this dry ginger for making Thirikadugam (Trikatu) for my kid. The aroma of sukku was just irresistible. As a kid, I have ran away from all these, but age matters. These days, looking after ourselves is a big task and keep looking for change in lifestyle to adopt a healthier one. I have given with sukku (Dry ginger), but you can also use sukku powder we get in packets in shops.

    Sukku coffee

    Course Drinks
    Cuisine Indian
    Prep Time 10 minutes
    Cook Time 15 minutes
    Servings 8
    Cup measurements

    Ingredients

    • ½ cup Dry ginger Crushed roughly
    • ½ cup Coriander seeds
    • Palm sugar candy – As needed
    Prevent your screen from going dark

    Instructions

    • Break the sukku to soften it. We cannot add as such in mixer, otherwise mixie will get spoiled. So I used my hand mortar and pestle for this.
    • Transfer to the mixer and just run it to powder it coarsely. No need to powder finely. This way the aroma is very different from using fine powder, I feel.
    • Add coriander seeds and again do not powder finely, let it be coarse.
    • Transfer this to an airtight container and you can use it for a month. To make a single serving, boil 2 cups water. Lower the flame.
    • Add 2 heaped teaspoon of this sukku malli powder (Dry ginger+ coriander powder) and let it boil in medium flame until it reduces to half.
    • Add palm candy (Panangarkandu) as needed to sweeten and let it dissolve. Switch off the stove.
    • Filter it through a metal strainer and transfer the sukku kaapi to the cup.

    Notes

    • You can make then and there too, instead of making the powder ahead. Just place a small piece of dry ginger and break it until soft in a mortar and pestle. Add 2 tablespoon of coriander seeds and crush it too coarsely until aromatic. Proceed from step 4.
    • I find this way, its more aromatic as we are crushing the ingredients than powdering.
    • You can use karuppatti (Palm jaggery), or jaggery or even honey (must be added only to luke warm coffee) to sweeten this coffee.
    • You can add a cardamom to make it more aromatic.
    • You can add little milk after you switch off the stove.

      Hi Raji,

      Make sure you remove the skin of dry ginger even if you buy an organic. It is toxic and causes indigestion.

      Regards,

      Dear Raks,
      You emphasise 'without roasting'. What is special or added value of not roasting the coriander seeds? Do explain, it helps understand food better.

      And one more question: Is palm sugar the same as palm candy ground?

      I have no medicinal reason for not roasting. The flavour is different and I like it. Lazy version too 🙂 And not sure about the candy and sugar difference.

      Soak the dry ginger in warm water for few minutes. Then it will be easy to peel. Anyway you are going to boil it. So moisture present in this will not be an issue.
