- 100 gms Sukku (Dry ginger)
- ⅓ cup Coriander Seeds 1 cup = 250 ml
- 2 teaspoon Pepper
- 2 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ghee (Clarified butter)
- 2 cups Water
- 2 teaspoon Palm Jaggery (Karuppatti Vellam)
Method to prepare Sukku Coffee Powder
Take the sukku (dry ginger) and break it into small pieces. Take the pieces in the mixer and grind it to a fine smooth powder. I personally prefer to use the whole dry ginger and powder it as it will be more fresh than the store bought powder.
Heat a pan and add coriander seeds along with pepper and cumin seeds and dry fry them for 2 minutes. Cool the ingredients and add it to the mixer
Grind the cooled ingredients to a fine powder. Mix the ground powder and the dry ginger powder and sieve it to remove the lumps. Now the sukku malli powder is ready. Once cooled, store the sukku malli powder in an air tight container and we can keep it for atleast 3 months.
Let's prepare the Coffee
Add 2 cups of water in a sauce pan and add broken palm jaggery and allow the jaggery dissolve completely.
Add 1 teaspoon of sukku malli powder and allow it to boil for 5 minutes in low flame. Then strain the sukku malli coffee using a strainer to remove any rough particles
Serve the hot and spicy Sukku Coffee.
- We can also use store bought dry ginger powder instead of grinding the whole dry ginger. But I personally prefer to use the whole dry ginger and powder it as it will be more fresh than the store bought powder.
- Be generous in adding ghee to sukku coffee before serving.
- We can also add little milk. Also while boiling the water, we can add basil leaves(Karum thulasi).
- Always serve hot this coffee
