Bring the best of Cambodia cuisine to your kitchen! Using the flavors of Cambodia’s famous Amok (a royal speciality traditionally steamed with fish in banana leaf), this recipe includes homemade Kroeung (a delicious lemongrass curry paste found in many Cambodian dishes) to create this delicate, sweet and savory dish that pairs great with our premium, organic and wildlife-friendly Phka Rumdoul jasmine rice.
