Cooking Steps

Cook the chicken
1
  • Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan.
  • Boil the chicken breast for 11 - 14 minutes, or until done. Drain and transfer to a plate.
  • Prepare the stock (see pantry for amount).
  • In a small pot or saucepan, boil plenty of water for the eggs.
Prepare the vegetables
2
  • Carefully transfer the egg to the water and boil for 8 - 10 minutes. Rinse the egg under cold water, then peel and cut the egg in half.
  • Finely chop the onion.
  • Press or mince the garlic.
  • Peel the celeriac with a peeler or a sharp knife and chop it into rough pieces.
Cook the vegetables
3
  • Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in a large deep frying pan over medium heat. Fry half of the onion with half of the garlic for 2 minutes.
  • Add the Surinamese-style spices and half of the Garam Masala. Fry for 1 minute, then add the celeriac and mix well.
  • Add the stock and bring to a boil. Let it simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. 
  • Discard the tips of the green beans and cut them in half. Use two forks to "pull" the chicken into thin pieces.
Make the sauce
4
  • Add the green beans to the pan with the celeriac and cook, uncovered, for 5 - 6 minutes, or until the celeriac is soft and the sauce is smooth and thickened. 
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat in another large deep frying pan. Fry the remaining garlic and onion for 3 - 4 minutes.
Fry the pulled chicken
5
  • Add the ginger stir-fry sauce and the remaining Garam Masala (see Tip). Fry for 1 - 2 minutes. Add a splash of water and mix well. 
  • Add the pulled chicken to the frying pan and stir well to coat.

Tip: add some sambal to taste if you'd like the chicken to be more spicy.

Serve
6
  • Serve the vegetables on deep plates.
  • Serve the pulled chicken over the vegetables.
  • Serve with the egg alongside.
