Mangalorean Kori Sukka/Chicken Sukka

March 19, 2016 by Pranay Singh Leave a Comment

Chicken Sukka

Dear readers, it must be pretty evident to you by now that we have been smitten by food and culture of Mangalore post our return from the food excursion of this coastal city. You may want to read about our trip here and here and we are trying to relive those moments by making some of the culinary gems that we tasted and learnt during our trip. If coastal food draws your fascination you may want to try out these Mangalorean recipes.

This week our efforts were channeled in trying to make another Mangalorean culinary gem known as Kori Sukka. If the highlight for us on day one of our trip was Goli-Baje, then definitely that spot must go to Kori-Sukka on day 2.  Kori-meaning chicken in Tulu and Sukka means a dry preparation which is achieved by adding lot of coconut, which gives this preparation a distinct coastal flavor.

This chicken preparation can be or rather should I say must be relished with Neer Dosa. No other accompaniment or bread recipe would do justice to Kori Sukka as much as Neer Dosa. The combination is just unbeatable.

This preparation involves making of two distinct masalas. To start with we dry roast fresh grated coconut, cloves of garlic and cumin seeds and grind them together. While making this blend, water must not be added as we intend to form a coarse powder from these ingredients. The second masala involves ghee roasting coriander seeds, cumin seeds, peppercorn, fenugreek seeds and red chilies. These ingredients are combined with few cloves of garlic, turmeric powder and a marble sized tamarind ball which gives a mellowed tanginess to the dish. This two blends of Indian spices form the heart and soul of the recipe.
