Suriname’s food is an exotic mix of East Indian, Indian, Creole, Indonesian and Chinese cuisines with a touch of Caribbean thrown in; the cheapest eateries are warungs, Javanese food stalls serving fried noodle and rice dishes. BBR is the abbreviation for Brown Beans and Rice and this dish is very popular in Suriname and Holland.
Cut up the chicken add curry, paprika, and pepper to your taste. Put the margarine in a skillet, wait till it is lightly brown then add the meat. When the meat is brown add the cut up onion, bell pepper and garlic. When the onion is soft and translucent, add the cut up tomato and mushrooms. Add a cup of water, bouillon cube, and the bay leaves. Then add the rinsed pinto beans, a Tablespoon of vinegar, 1 Tablespoon of sugar and 2 Tablespoons ketjap manis. Simmer for 20 minutes.
While the chicken/bean mixture is simmering, you should also cook the rice. Put 1 3/4 cup of water in a pot and when it boils add 1 cup of rice put the lid on and simmer for 20 minutes (or according to the package instructions for your rice).
When everything is done, put the bean meat mix over the rice and eat with some pickled cucumber.
To make the pickled cucumber you slice the cucumber thin add 1 teaspoon of salt, let it sit for about 15 minutes. Squeeze the juice out of it. Then add 1 Tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon mustard and 1/2 Tablespoon of vinegar and pepper to taste.
