Less zesty than
the curries of neighboring Thailand, Khmer red curry is comparatively coconut-drain based, however without the overwhelming bean stew. It's
substantially simpler to appreciate. The dish highlights hamburger, chicken or
fish, eggplant, green beans, potatoes, new coconut drain, lemongrass and
kroeung.
Khmer red curry
This dish is
typically served at exceptional events in Cambodia, for example, weddings,
family social events and religious occasions like Pchum Ben, or Ancestor's Day,
where Cambodians make the dish to impart to priests out of appreciation for
their predecessors. Khmer red curry is typically presented with bread — a
leftover of the French effect on Cambodia.
