food culture

Traditional Cambodian cuisine can choose chicken, fish or other main ingredients. The practice is to add spices to coconut milk, and then add the main ingredients to cook. Coconut shells are generally containers for vegetables, which have local characteristics.

Cambodian hotpot is similar to a small hotpot in China, with a small pot of soup, a plate of beef, a plate of fresh vegetables (including some bananas/plantains), a plate of transparent round cakes and a plate of dipping sauce. Put the sliced meat in a hot pot, dip two small round cakes in water and put them in an empty plate. At this time, the meat is cooked, put it on the cake, and then put on fresh vegetables. At this time, the cake is soft, so roll it up and dip it in seasoning.

Similar to China's burritos, fresh vegetable rolls are dipped in seasoning in pancakes, and there is also a kind of spring rolls fried in China. The fillings and dips of each family are different and taste good.
