How To Make Chicken Sukka, Easy Recipe

Chicken sukka or kori sukka is a popular mangalorean style chicken recipe. It literally means chicken in a dry gravy.

The recipe uses fresh coconut and simple Indian whole spices. So fresh and fragrant recipe but I have broken down this recipe in a simple way.

If you want the original recipe with the the more whole spice version then checkout my blog post for Mangalorean Kori Sukka.

To start with you will need a fresh coconut. I recently got to know the trick how to shell the coconut with the least effort.

Just pop the whole coconut in freezer for 24 hours or even overnight works. Then take out an hour before you actually need it. Then simply use a rolling pin or anything hard and bang in the centre. The shell will start to break. Its so easy that the first time I tried it was unbelievable.

Do try this way and leave in comments your thoughts!

Cook for a minute and then add the chicken.

Add 250ml of water. Mix.

Cover and cook for 25 mins. If needed add more water(just enough so that the chicken does not stick to the bottom of the pan).

Lastly add the garam masala.(for a unique flavor you can also add your fav chicken masala)

Enjoy with rice or roti.

Like any other curry make few hours in advance and let it rest. It will taste even better.
