One serving of Egg Sukke contains approximately 325 calories, making it a satisfying and moderately caloric main dish. The exact count can vary based on the size of the eggs and the amount of oil used.
It pairs beautifully with traditional Mangalorean breads like Neer Dosa or Pundi (rice dumplings). It also goes very well with steamed rice, chapatis, or parathas.
Freshly grated coconut is highly recommended for the best texture and flavor. If you must use desiccated coconut, soak it in a few tablespoons of warm water for 15-20 minutes before grinding to rehydrate it.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The flavors often meld and taste even better the next day. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
