im vietnamese and love cambodian food. grew up with a lot of cambodian friends and their parents would always feed this youn. Just made this dish last night for my wife's family.
Love watching your videos! I am a Cambodian/American that didn’t get to watch my mom cook. When I moved out of my parents house, I really missed Cambodian food, so watching your videos are great and helpful!
awww, thanks for sharing. I really appreciate the feedback and letting me know that you watch my videos. I’ve always loved cooking and was fortunate enough to learn from the elders. I hope my daughter watches these videos when she is away and misses my cooking. ❤
One of my fav dishes
yas, one of our favorites. 😋
Somlaw Machu greung is my favorite Cambodian Somlaw. When I do make it, I like to use beef tongue, beef and beef tripe. I do like it with catfish as well. Pork ribs is delicious. That's what I like about Somlaw Machu Greung, you can use any protein substitute.🤤😋👍🏽
thank you, brother. That sounds very delicious. My husband loves beef tongue but I don’t so i never add that for him since I’m the cook 😂. yes, you are correct that you can use any protein.
dam lady you know how to make cambodian food yummy
thank you!
This is pretty much the same with Filipino's Sinigang.
Where can I find Holy Basil?? I am also located in the Bay Area in San Leandro. I love your videos! 👍🏻
Honestly, I’m not sure but maybe checkout any southeast asian supermarkets in your area. I used to live in Richmond and there was only one Laos market that sold holy basil. It’s out of season at the moment but i’ll have listed on my website when it’s in season again.
by the way, thank you for the feedback. I appreciate your comment. ♥️
Thanks for the info!
