I don’t see very many Khmer ppl so it’s nice to finally understand things allot do not for once. Thank you for so many uploads. Saum Arkoun
Your mom cooks by taste which is a knowledge that passed down by generations before her. This is invaluable knowledge and she is passing forward not only to her children but to share it with all of us khmer new generation and the world, god bless her for her sharing heart. Thank you :)

i love this video, my son aways helps me cook soo, i think this is super useful and i love your relationship with your mother. food and love brings families together
@4:45 It is called in English: fingerroot or in Khmer: k'jeay (ខ្ជាយ). It is from a ginger family and a vital part of 'kroeung' (គ្រឿង), a pasty mixture of lemongrass, galangal, fingerroot, tumeric, kaffir lime leaves, garlic and shallots--a very important spices in Khmer cooking. And in that jar it is not 'pickled' but simply in 'brine' water, so it's not supposed to be sour or acidic.
Thank you SO much for gettin mama to cook this, I tried this for the first time with chicken & fish at my husband cousin engagement party, I have been craving it like crazy!!!!!!!!!!
This was nice to watch and helpful too! Trying to learn how to make this since my yeay is no longer with me. I regret never learning how to make these when she was still with me, but I'm learning now so I can teach my kids in the future
YUM! i like your mothers recipe & how you & your mom are cooking together. I been wanting to learn how to make nom pa choke for the longest. I'm not sure if your family eats it with a sauce ( like a tamarind peanut sauce.) but its hella good. thanks for a recipes! hope to see new ones soon :)
the "rhizome" is kachai...sounds more like kjee-ay. it is a root related to turmeric, galanga, ginger etc. sometimes it is called lesser galingale in english. love this dish, I cook it at least twice a year for my daughter it is her favorite.Thanks for the video, love your mom!
We ran out of kwah ko awhile ago :(. I need to make some more or something! But its so bad for me right now especially when I'm on a diet lol. I'll definitely let her know though, she'll be very happy. She likes to hear what people say about her cooking on youtube.
I love watching your videos. I'm Cambodian too but I don't know how to make these food >.< these are really helpful, i'm gona try to make these for my family
My husband loves this when we go eat it at his mom's house. He wants me to learn how to make this. Thanks for sharing this video! By the way, how long did the catfish cook? Was your mom slow cooking it or was it cooking on medium high heat?
My mom makes a curry stew and instead of eating it with rice or bread she'll eat it with the noodles. She said that she plans to make the curry for this coming Khmer New Years so I plan to have it recorded. And my nieces are pretty good with Khmer food. You'll be amazed by what they eat.
Each person cook differently and use different ingredients. I try to figure out who has the CORRECT and BEST ingredients . Thanks for taking the time to share your cooking . Yours got a 👍. មនុស្សម្នាក់ៗចម្អិនខុសៗគ្នា ហើយប្រើគ្រឿងផ្សំផ្សេងៗគ្នា។ ខ្ញុំព្យាយាមរកឱ្យឃើញថាអ្នកណាដែលមានសារធាតុផ្សំត្រឹមត្រូវ និងល្អបំផុត ។ mnoussa mnea k chamain khosa knea haey brae kruengophsaam phsaeng knea . khnhom pyeayeam rk aoy kheunh tha anak na del mean sarthato phsaam troemotrauv ning la bamphot .
Thanks for this video it really helps I've been trying to get my mom to teach me how to make this but she lives an hour away and hasn't had the time to teach.
the same way my mom makes it. but im bouta show her what i can do this is my favorite khmer dish and my mom is craving it, im gonna use this recipe and tweek it a little to be my own
Even though you are from America and I am from Australia we all have the same cooking utensils in our homes! LOL It's awesome, that super Asian basket, the wooden mortar and pestle, the pots, and those bowls too! Also I was wondering does your mum know how to make the sweet paste that goes with the num bajok? Not many Khmay people know how to make it :( my grandma use to know but sadly she doesn't remember anymore because of her age. I hope you can reply back :) Thanks Bong!
Ena Sim you can find it on TH-cam sweet soure from Siem reap but it is so difficult to make sweet source for Cambodia noodle. Normally I just put more sugar in 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love this! I been watching a lot of your videos lately. Does she know how to make that red sauce that goes with it? I searched every where and no luck!
Great video!! I've never had this dish before but i'm sure its fab!! Ur nieces are adorable and ur mom is too!! Luv the videos, keep em coming! Thank you Berny!!
How does it taste with a bit of coconut milk? Does it make the soup taste thicker? I'm not sure how to explain haha. But I always wanted to try making it with coconut milk on my own since my mom does not like adding coconut milk when she makes it. Thank you for sharing your family's recipe! My mom and I prefer blending the ingredients: the lemongrass, rhizome, garlic, the pahok, etc in a blender to give it a smooth texture. Then we mash the fish bits in a mortar and pestle.
Funny story... growing up when my mom would make num bank chok, she would use can tuna the Chicken of the Sea brand b/c she thought it was actually chicken in there. LOL!!! anyways your mom's recipe looks yummy so ill be trying that soon. Thanx!
just about the same way my mom-in- law makes it ..she showed me how to but for some reason i can never remember the recipe and well am scared to ask her again since she taught it to me a a few times lol. Now i dont have too thanks to your ma..I also have a request could she make ..katieuv kho / cambodian pho.. lol idk how its spelled sorry..pls let her know!
sorry ming if we make it with chicken, do we have to cook the chicken first or we can do it raws? please confirm cos i am wondering how to make it with chicken. thank ming :)

How does it taste with a bit of coconut milk?
Does it make the soup taste thicker? I'm not sure how to explain haha.
But I always wanted to try making it with coconut milk on my own since my mom does not like adding coconut milk when she makes it.
Thank you for sharing your family's recipe!
My mom and I prefer blending the ingredients: the lemongrass, rhizome, garlic, the pahok, etc in a blender to give it a smooth texture. Then we mash the fish bits in a mortar and pestle.
