Sukhiyan (Sugiyan)

Sukhiyan is a traditional snack which is part and parcel of Kerala cuisine. Traditionally it is eaten as an evening snack by the families when the children return from school or college. As grownups, many Keralites has nostalgic memories of enjoying a quality time with the family, eating hot Sukhiyan as evening snack. The snack is a great favorite when families gather to celebrate festivals.

It is a great snack to serve with coffee or tea to the visitors or family members. With a little bit of practice one can prepare Sukhiyan easily and within the shortest possible time.

According to me cooking is an equal-opportunity talent and I find that anybody can cook. It is not limited by the age, profession, caste, colour or creed of a person. What is needed is the love for cooking. For me the passion for cooking does not stop in the kitchen, when I travel, I continue to be inspired by eating in some of the best restaurants around the world.

Hi Mr.Shan can I use Aata Flour for Sugiyan.

    Sharaf, There is nothing wrong in using Aata flour for sugiyan. But all-purpose flour (maida) will be more soft and tasty. Or you can use the mix of both flours.

Hi, Please add more and more recipes as all your recipes are worth a try. Recently no recipe is being updated 🙁 Thanks.

    Priya, Thanks for the feedback. I was really busy these days with my works. I will be adding more recipes shortly.
