Food in the world: cambodia

Khmer cuisine or, more generally,Cambodian cuisine, is the traditional cuisine of the people of Cambodia. Average meals typically consist of more than one dish and ideally contrast flavours, textures and temperatures within the meal using plenty of herbs, leaves,Pickled vegetables dipping sauces, edible flowers and other garnishes and condiments.

Khmer red curry Khmer red curry is similarly coconut-milk-based but without the overpowering chili.  The dish features beef, chicken or fish, eggplant, green beans, potatoes, fresh coconut milk, lemongrass and kroeung. This delicious dish is usually served at special occasions in Cambodia such as weddings, family gatherings and religious holidays 

Fried fish on the fire lake Fresh coconut milk isn't used in every day Khmer cooking. Instead it's saved for dishes served at special occasions. Fried Fish on the Fire Lake is one such dish -- it's traditionally made for parties or eaten at restaurants in a special, fish-shaped dish. A whole fish is deep-fried and then finished on a hotplate at the table in a coconut curry made from yellow kroeung and chilies.

Frogs Frogs legs are a delicacy in many countries, but in Cambodia the entire frog is eaten and not just his legs! The most commonly used frogs for eating can be found in rice fields. They are easier to catch at night, as they freeze when a light is shining in their eyes. A popular way of eating frogs in Cambodia

Half haTched Duck eggs 17 day old eggs are boiled, with partially formed chick still inside. What you end up with is a kind of soup that smells pretty much as you would expect it to. Here in Cambodia, this dish is as common as hotdogs or beef burgers but I never got to try.

Baby crocodile We saw baby crocodile too, which was strange experience – the teeth doing the biting and chewing usually belong to the crocodile, not the person. We were told that these were not endangered, but we decided not to try anyway.
