Cambodia Cuisine

Disclaimer: I only tried a coupe of things so I can’t call myself an authority on Cambodian cuisine but I did thoroughly enjoy what I tried. Here are some of the basic and more exotic food items I got to see in Cambodia.

Before food, coconuts. Never met a coconut I don’t like :) Also, I saw a lot of women doing farming type responsibilities in Cambodia.

Truly enjoyed this traditional Cambodian curry with seafood. It’s a bit spicy and filled with pumpkin leaves and other vegetables.

It’s served with white rice.

Now, I didn’t try this but I was very curious about it so I asked the lady who was eating it if I could take a picture. It’s essentially small clans that she cooked in a broth.

I also didn’t try this but it’s considered a common snack in Cambodia - peppered maggots

This I tried - fried grasshopper

Eating grasshopper with tissue pieces on my face cause again, it was hot!

fried dough, breakfast food

I definitely tried this roasted banana and it was delicious!

And my fresh coconut drink, so refreshing!
