I learned SO much from watching this. I’m 24 and grew up in a Cambodian household but didn’t get the honor of learning to cook Khmer food. I feel so lucky to come across your content. Love the way you explained what you were doing and shared some history with us. I can’t wait to surprise my mom and grandma with some curry!!
Hey Ellice! Thanks you so much for your kind words.This honestly means the world to us and is the reason why we do what we do. To share culture in a different light :)
NHUM - Recipes from a Cambodian Kitchen SAOY - Royal Cambodian Home CuisineSAOY - Royal Cambodian Home Cuisine These are a couple of really good khmer cookbooks I recently found.
Due too war Cambodian hasn't been able too grow with the world. But the flavour culture and tradition of its ingredients still live and still can be mastered. This curry is beautiful and standards are with the rest of the curries of the world.
Absolutely! But this particular recipe is 3 generations old to Rom and her family, so as far as know the recipe is 100 yrs. I'm sure it's definitely much older though!
This is true because im 42 and curry recipe was pass down from my great mom to my grandmother to my mom who is the daughter in law and trying to pass the recipe to my only daughter. I know many life experiences from my elders from years. Much love from here in Southern Cali.❤
First Times i buy the food in Kambodja restaurant.First Times in Paris 2022,and i love the perles de soja,i try Thai and Japan,but i think still Kambodja the best.i like Indonesian curry,Thai curry, Vietnam curry,and today i Will like to buy chicken curry Kambodja.Because most of the Times i only buy chicken grill kambodja.I hope i Will like it chicken curry kambodja,looks good when i watch the video.
Wow you’ve tried lots of different kinds of chicken! If you like grilled chicken, you’ll definitely like this curry. It’s super flavourful and goes perfect with bread!
That is awesome thankyou for sharing I go to a cafe in Papakura it's called Beans & Leaves and they come from your Conutry, they showed me to come and watch your show on here. So i can make it for myself. I love your foods, when they have new foods come in I try them and find out how to cook them. Again Thankyou when i have done it I will come back and give you my report. Now can you tell me what is that spice which looks like ginger please.
Thank you very much for sharing. I do a lot of curries from all around the world and this one looks incredible. I am going to be doing this tonight. I was just wondering about the chicken marinade. Thanks again. subscribed... :)
It's very interesting to see the many variations of Khmer curry. I know your pain of pounding that lemongrass and making that Kroung. I had to do the same when I was around your age to help my mom in the kitchen. It's great to see dishes made in the different regions of the world!
Do you know where I can find the beef stew version of this? Or could I simply just use beef and it’s bones instead of chicken? I like it served over Jasmine rice or Nom Ban Chok noodles.
Hello!!! Amazing to hear from you. We have a friend in NZ who is moving to your part of the world very soon. He's only 18 but he has a dream to work for tech start ups one day!
Thai Red Curry comes from the regions of Surin, Sisaket and Buriram, guess who is the majority ethnic group that resides there to this day? Not to mention that they were originally Khmer provinces during the reign of Angkor.
@@samwrought5650 Red Curry is from central Thailand (look it up it is common info.) and Khmer was under Siam rule for more than 400 years before French colony in 1863. It is not surprising that similar recipes will get passed down from Ruling Kingdom to the ruled.
@@TheDeciderGod we may agree to disagree on this topic, is not Thai or (Tai Lue or Thai Kadai) people originally from Nanchao region of China? Mon Khmers have settled in Southeast Asia the Irrawaddy and Mekong Delta before Tai Lue, and we’ve traded with India where many of these ingredients like turmeric come from.
I believe that’s the beauty of this multicultural world we live in. Where we can grow into loving the new land of Where we live right now but still remember where we came from. Thanks for commenting

If Khmers didn’t use coconut milk, how did archeologists uncover cooking tools and ingredients to suggest that we have in the areas that were part of the Funan empire, the empire that many historians believe to be the very first Khmer empire? The findings were published July 2023 titled “Earliest curry in Southeast Asia and the global spice trade 2000 years ago”. They found spices commonly used in curry and they also found coconuts on a mortar. Researchers said the spice were similar to how curry is made in South Asia, but the difference is the use of coconut milk. From the paper: “Today, curry is still popular in Southeast Asia, and the ingredients recovered from Oc Eo are matched more closely in modern Southeast Asia than in South Asia in being mixed with endemic spices and thickened by coconut milk.” Also, this is the first site where they found galanga. It’s a good idea to read up on actual archaeological evidence published by specialists working in the field and not sprouting unbased claims picked up from unreliable sources.

The khmer empire expanded and had much control of the indo chinese peninsula for around 600 years before. Many of the flavors all around thailand/vietnam/laos come from interactions with the khmer. There's many overlapping dishes because of this.
Thailand wasn't a country so foreigners refer to it as Siam. Most Thai king have learned Khmer. Heck let's talk about Prasat Thong. He did claim that he came from a Khmer bloodline.
Khmer empire ruled siam much MORE THAN 400 years (600-700 years). The khmer influences had already pretty much erased whatever original siam culture that use to exists. Language, food, art, tradition.
I don’t know where you guys get that Siam ruled over Cambodia for 400 years prior to it becoming a protectorate of France when there are records of Portugal and Japan interacting with Cambodia as a sovereign country during the 17th century. These types of statements that contradicts records from other countries that have been well preserved makes me question how history is being taught in your school.

I would say go ahead and substitute to beef :) it’ll still taste amazing. And wow those carb alternatives would be amazing!

Ah yes maybe we need a more specific recipe yes?
Adopt other recipe's styles. It would sure benefit your curiousity on how too progress. Or a cook book will take you directly there. Good luck.
Not every curry is curry
Truth
Every region is done differently. I agree.
The ingredients and the way it's made is almost exactly like Thai Red curry.
Except Thai red curry doesn’t have turmeric and often time with dried chili
