Tofu dessert
Here is the recipe
បើសិនធ្វើចេះ ចេះឲ្យគេកោត បើសិនធ្វើឆោត ឆោតឲ្យគេអាណិត។
If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.

Looks tempting but alot of work, think I'd still rather eat a bowl of fresh picked boiled edamame beans and a slab of tuna sashmi rather than sweetened curds made from overripe soybean milk.Samouth wrote:

Actually I've eaten this and a few variations thereof with added fruits and sweet milk, but I'm just not of fan of sweet food. The only time I'll add sugar is to a latte.

Re: Good n' cheap tasty sources of protein
Not sure how you can get it in Sihnaoukville, but in Phnom Penh, you can't get is so easily. It is originated from Vietnam and normally you can get it from Vietnamese vendors carry it along the way. You can get it for 1000 riel for a medium plastic glass. It tastes really good and also smell really good as they put ginger in the sauce.Raybull wrote:Looks tempting but alot of work, think I'd still rather eat a bowl of fresh picked boiled edamame beans and a slab of tuna sashmi than curds made from overripe soybean milk.Samouth wrote:

You can get it at a couple places and some lady walks around selling it in the vietnamese areas around O'mouy before, not sure if they're still there as quite a few of them have 'left' back home over the last 2 years.
Re: Good n' cheap tasty sources of protein
I see. I think in general, you might not like southeast asia desserts as they tend to be sweeter. i have never had it in Sihanoukivlle.

thanks for the dullest 10 seconds of my lifeRaybull wrote:Yeah, just thought they're might be more to it than the shit you can buy at the prohat sellers for 500r a stick.

I'll add edamame for the vegans, bon sai barang, sometimes available for 5-6kr/kg at the markets, or ten times that at stores

Re: Good n' cheap tasty sources of protein
Hehe all asian desserts I've eaten are really good, but I just prefer salty snack than sweet...bbq crickets, pistachios, chips, quails eggs, dried squid and beef, etc.Samouth wrote:I see.

Re: Good n' cheap tasty sources of protein
Tofu is fine infused in a spicy curry or well flavoured stir fry but, as pointed out, is pretty tasteless otherwise.
I eat a dish with tofu, pork and watercress stir fried quite a lot, it's good. Similarly I eat a lot of Indian dishes with tofu substituted for meat/paneer.
$2.50 buys enough tofu for a human to eat for a week here.

Re: Good n' cheap tasty sources of protein
For those who can't stand tofu; lentils,beans and chickpeas are good sources of protein and can be very tasty. A tin is about $1.20 and if you add meat and/or veges it will feed 2 people. Not as cheap as tofu but much tastier. Make good salads too.Jerry Atrick wrote:Tofu is fine infused in a spicy curry or well flavoured stir fry but, as pointed out, is pretty tasteless otherwise.

Extremely easy recipe to cook in a fry pan: Fry some sausages (I like Dan Meat beef sausages because they're spicy and not fatty) or some bacon, add onion, garlic, cumin powder and curry powder, capisicum chopped finely and black pepper - when that looks good, add a chopped tomato - cook a bit then add a tin of lentils, butter beans or chickpeas. Heat and eat. Hint: if you cook it a bit before you want to eat and reheat it will have more flavour.
