Tell your mom thank you for sharing her wonderful recipes! Some ppl are greedy with their recipes and UA-cam becomes our teacher. You are a great son also. 😊
what a blessing to have a mommy who loves to cook the traditional way..thanks for sharing
The fact that she cooks the catfish first so that the soup itself won't have that fishy taste so she cleans it from frying it a little. Omg I love it! Definitely going to try it out!
Lailani Norn oh so that’s why she did that thanks for clarifying.
I love all of your mom’s recipes and I especially enjoy watching the interactions between you and your mom. Such precious memories. ❤️
I made this today and it was good! Even though I didn't have the fresh tamarind, only the soup base. I didn't even have fish, but shrimp. No fuzzy melon either. I added baby corn and mushroom. Overall it was still good. I love how her recipes are so simple!
Love these videos! Your mom is so sweet and I just love the way you two bond together in the kitchen! I just laughed at the end about the shrimp comment and getting a bigger bowl. THANK YOU for all your hard work, time, and effort to teaching our generation how to cook good authentic Khmer foods like your mom!!!
I've lived with my mom majority of my life. She is my main provider for Cambodian food... I am moving to El Paso in a few days so I'm gonna have to learn how to cook for myself. Tell your moms she's my hero! Thank YOU! I look forward to learning all these recipes and future recipes from her. Thank you for sharing these with me! (: (: (:
Thank you to your mom. From another Khmer deum. She has taught me how to cook. Many blessing to her
I made this soup today and it came out amazing! Your mother is amazing and thank you so very much for sharing this video!! I replaced the fish with chicken, I am not a big fan of fish and I also added lotus rootlets
Dear mom, you're so kind, not just cook for son, but also take videos for son:) love mom nas:))
Thank you for trying the recipe and giving us feedback on how it came out. Alot of my family uses chicken vs fish because well, they just prefer chicken. Thank you for supporting and watching
Guess what! you are very lucky that you have a wonderful Mom. I love the way she cooks Khmer food ,and I always watching your Mom cooking. Last, I'd happy to learn from her. Oh tell your Mom that I say thank you for everything and best of luck with everything and live happiness 4ever.
Oh my!! I have discovered this soup while I ate at a French and Cambodian restaurant in Boston, MA called the Elephant Walk (Highly recommend.. been going for about 5 years) and I never thought to google the recipe util now! I can't wait to make this myself!
My mother in law cooks like this. Tried to replicate it, had no idea that I was complaining that mine was too sweet, because of me not realizing how much tamarind I need to please my sour Czech taste... I'll try again now.
I can't believe it's been 10 years already. I did a search and this popped up. I remember watching your videos when 1st came out, before social media was too extra. Hope you and your family have been doing well
I am a fan from San Diego! Your mother reminds me a lot of my mother. My mother passed away in 2004 and I really miss her & her cooking. Your mothers cooking is so comforting to me. Keep the videos coming! Also can your mom make beef plea?
Just tried this for the first time and it's so good. Simple and easy. Love the video!
Tracey Seng Your welcome.
Tracey Seng And thank you haha.
Thank you so much for this recipe! I love all of your mom's cooking, thanks for sharing!
I think I love every somlor menus.
Awww that's nice Mom Son bonding...im sure the son is a good cook to now. Thanks for the tamarind trick. I have never thought of adding hot water to get the tamadind base out of it. I will definitely try this recipe.
I think your mom mentioned about frying the catfish is that she would rather not put the raw fish directly into the soup base because of how stinky the fish is and how it would release its fish aromas in the soup. She rather fry the fish first so it doesn't have that fish smell in the soup.
but it kinda taste wierd fried. i prefer the fish cooked in the broth i guess its my preference
Polin Hem you dont fully cook the fish just light cook it until the smell and blood is out take about 5 min.
well i have not tried to make this dish on my own yet. it is way to intimidating
You only need to sear the fish for a few minutes to get rid of the fishy smell
Yes you are correct
Love your Mom, she's so cute and sweet!❤️
Thank you for sharing knowledge to us, you got a good son that help you, is easy for me to understand in English, I appreciate and enjoy to watch your video.
in southern Vietnam we have Canh Chua (translate Sour Soup). the recipes for canh chua is very similar to this dish.
Thank you for the videos
She definitely knows how to make that. I to am waiting for the day that she decides to make that.
Your mom said when searing the fish before putting in the soup helps takes the fishy taste away. ☺️
Looks delicious! Can't wait to try it! Anyway maybe your mom can show us how to make nom ansom jak- banana with sticky rice. Thanks for the videos! You guys are awesome!

oddar Meanchey Province-It is Located about north west of the Country moreover towards northern part border of Thailand (Surin)
Tell your mom we love her and to keep making videos. Lol
I love it at the end, when your mom was teasing you regarding the shrimp..treasure moment!! your mom is a keeper :D
Your mom said to fry it until the juices/blood is gone so that when you put the fish in the other soup pot it wont be fishy.
Lol...Love mom's comment, nham oy oss ma chan nung tov..eat all whats in that bowl..awsome video MOM!! much love..
I don't mind at all. Do you blog them on your website?
Your mom is saying that you pan fry the fish just until its lightly browned so that the skin isn't slimy anymore. You pan fry so that the soup doesn't get that "fishy" taste. If you don't mind the fishy taste, you can go ahead and cook it in the soup directly. Lol, sorry, just wanted to clarify to the viewers on why you'd want to pan fry the catfish. :]
I really admire you and your mom's work! Keep it up!! Thank You Guys Very Much!!
Very good ma ma that is cooking I like
I love your mom accent.

Your mom is so sweet, which part of Cambodia are you guys from? I cant pick up her accent when she calls herself mom.
The soup looks very yummy 😋!
Thanks for the tip about frying the catfish, I didn't know about this so I've never cooked it with catfish before! BTW your mom is so nice! Keep up the great work! :)
Great Video!! Thank you for sharing. This will be my next Khmer recipe :-)
I love it and
I LOVE IT
This is my favorite soup,
Definitely!!
Instead of putting the tamarind powder in the big pot because not everyone likes it really sour. you could have just scooped your own bowl and added the tamarind powder then.
Does your mom know you don’t be translating everything lol! She’s so cute!
very nice and helpful. thanks you
Its my camera adjusting focus. I'm using my dslr camera. I have yet to purchase an actual video camera.
Your mom is so cute !
Thanks so much. It was delicious.
So yummy in my tummy!!!
she basically said you don't fillet out the skin or bones because the fish will spoil. Khmer likes the fish flavor =)
Cool, I look forward to seeing it!
Thank you for cooking Om! I will try this recipe next! Yum yum yum! Does she know how to cha kdam? Stir fry crab?
I told my mom what you said and she didn't believe me haha.
Omg your making me hungry watching you eat lol
I can’t seem to find catfish anywhere I live- can anyone tell me what I can substitute it for?
