Discussions about restaurants, cafes, coffee shops or bars in Cambodia. Feel free to write any reviews you have, whether its the best burger you've had in Phnom Penh or the worse pizza in Kampot, we want to read it! Discussions about Khmer dishes are also in here, or you can leave your own. If you own a restaurant, feel free to let the expat community know about it here so that we can come check it out.

Nice plates by the way, they make the food look even better.

Palak Gosht has been a favorite dish of mine since I started to eat Pakistani curries many years ago, to me it has the perfect balance of vegetables and meat.
The vegetable cart came round early morning the same has they do every morning, 7 days a week, the Khmer husband and wife team have a good selection of fresh produce, they also carry fish and meats, and also a small verity of spice.
I usually buy beef from the Cham market, this morning the beef looked exceptionally nice on the cart, and they had some young spinach, so I knew what I was going to be cooking.

I think my curries are pretty good but I never managed the knack of making Indian breads. Grew up with Chapatis in Kenya and always have loved most Indian breads, but they never turn out right at home.

Easy with Chapatti, use warm water then kneed, the Chapatti will stay soft.

Making Chapatti

I can't give you weights and measures, because I have never used them.

Put some Plain Flour in a dish, add salt for taste and a very little oil (I mean just a drop or two).
Add boiled water (but let it cool enough so you're not going to burn your hand).
When adding the just off the boil water, use a fork to mix the flour and water together, keeping the ingredients on the dry side, then knead the dough and let it stand for 5 minutes.
Split the dough into portions, roll in your hands a small ball, flour the rolling surface and squash down the dough ball on the surface, and roll out, but keep turning it over, once rolled transfer it to a hot dry frying pan, when you see the chapatti bubble up, turn it over and cook the other side.
