Hey, I’d like to know if there’s any food out there that I haven’t tried… so can everyone list at least one Khmer food they know/like? I’ll start it off with… thraye chien chu (I think that translates to sweet and sour fish — or deep fried fish?)
ok i will list what i can think of ….
nam gnow = lemon chicken soup MMMMmmmn
nom pa joke -som law pka jake = rice noodle with banana flower seed(the thingy inside the flower hard to describe i forget what its called) soup and pork and u add ka pick with it and mint leaves..one of my fave YUM! i eat so much that i get sick.
prawn soup, large prawns boiled to make broth with a stick of lemon grass, assorted selection of gee(mints) some spices and lime squized in it
Hmmm…Yes! Khmer food…let see…. I don’t exactly know but I’m going to put down as many as I can think off..
1. Slaw Machu Krung
2. Khor Kho
3. Nom Pa chouk
4. Pro-hok (Can’t beat that!) Once you taste it, you’ll never go back!
I used to hate these food when my mom prepare them for dinner when I was a little kid. I now wish I could make them as good as she could.
Ever since my parents divorced and my mom moved to NM, I’ve been trying to re-create her dishes. So far, I can only cook ma-choo such koh and ma-choo yuon.
My dad tried also, but has failed miserably. He improvises too much… and tries to use a shortcut for everything. My step-mom is the same.
I guess there’s no hope for me. I’m stuck eating out.
