Cooking Steps

Chop the vegetables
1
  • Boil plenty of salted water in a pot or saucepan for the linguine.
  • Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
  • Grate the ginger. Halve the cucumber lengthways and scoop out the seeds, then slice into crescents. 
  • Cut the bell pepper into strips.
Prepare the cucumber
2
  • In a salad bowl, combine the white wine vinegar with the sugar, then add the cucumber and toss well to combine.
  • Boil the linguine for 9 - 11 minutes, then reserve some of the pasta water before draining and setting aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Fry the onion with the garlic, ginger and Surinamese-style spices for 2 - 3 minutes.
Finish
3
  • Stir in the chicken and the bell pepper, then fry for 7 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato paste, soy sauce and ketjap, then crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount). Stir-fry for 1 minute. 
  • Transfer the linguine to the wok and toss well to combine, adding a splash of pasta water as necessary if it seems too thick.
Serve
4
  • Finely chop the celery leaves.
  • Serve the bami on plates with some sambal as preferred. Garnish with the celery leaves and the crispy onions.
  • Serve the quick-pickled cucumber alongside.
