    World Day for Cultural Diversity Prahok ktiss (pork belly with fermented fish) With many thanks to the team at International Development Enterprises, Cambodia, for sharing this recipe and background. Prahok ktiss (image credit: International Development Enterprises). Prahok Ktiss is a very old, traditional recipe using prahok, a fermented salted fish paste which has been eaten by Cambodians almost every day. In fact, our diet is made up of over two thirds of fish and Prahok is a fermentation method to preserve fish even though it has a strong rich smell of rotten fish, but this smell is very well associated with Cambodia. Another main ingredient in this dish is Kroeung, a yellow curry-like paste which is made out of the combination of lemongrass, garlic, turmeric, shallot, galangal, makrut lime leaves, and red chilli. Kroeung has been used in many Cambodian dishes, we even use the ingredients in it for hot compress massage and believe it has benefits for our health as well. Recipe: Ingredients: • 150 g pork belly • 50 g prahok (fermented salted fish) • 2 garlic cloves, crushed www.mecs.org.uk For the sauce: • ½ red pepper, pounded to a paste • 2 garlic cloves, crushed • 20 g palm sugar • 125 ml (½ cup) coconut milk • 10 miniature eggplant or one small chopped eggplant (optional) • 2 makrut lime leaves, shredded • Splash vegetable oil For the Kroeung paste: • 1 stalk lemongrass, thinly sliced • 2 large garlic cloves, coarsely chopped • 1 small shallot, coarsely chopped • ½ tsp galangal, peeled, coarsely chopped • 3 makrut lime leaves, de-veined • ½ tsp turmeric, peeled, chopped • 1 chilli, chopped, seeded (optional) Method: • Using two knives or cleavers, finely chop the pork belly, prahok and two garlic cloves.

  • View of ASEAN Food William W
    Foreword Amb. Kim Young-sun Secretary General, ASEAN-Korea Centre The ASEAN* region has a great variety of cuisines that are distinctive despite having some common elements. ASEAN cuisine is a celebration of cultural diversity and unique ways of life, delivered through appetite-whetting dishes and exotic aromas. It embraces the unique characteristics of many different ethnicities, and in that way is a history of the culture of the region. The ASEAN spirit and passion permeate each and every dish, and food is an important link in the chain that binds the ASEAN community together. The ASEAN Culinary Festival 2016, organized by the ASEAN-Korea Centre, aims to introduce ASEAN cuisine to the Korean public by presenting a wide spectrum of ASEAN dishes. Thirty distinctive dishes are included; they were selected to suit the Korean palate while showcasing the diverse flavors of ASEAN. Under the theme “Gourmet Trips to ASEAN,” the Festival will help Koreans, also known for their cuisine, discover the sweet and savory ASEAN culinary delights. In line with the “Visit ASEAN@50: Golden Celebration” campaign to celebrate the 50th anniversary of ASEAN, the Festival also intends to promote ASEAN culinary destinations by showcasing fascinating food trails across the region to the Korean public. Food is a universal language that brings people and cultures together. It is an essential part of life to all people of all nations. With the rise in the number of tourists traveling specifically to experience the cuisine of other peoples, food is increasingly important in enhancing harmony around the world. In this regard, I am certain that the ASEAN Culinary Festival will serve as a platform to strengthen the partnership between ASEAN and Korea by connecting the hearts and minds of the people and creating a bond over a “shared meal of diversity.” With the ASEAN-Korea Cultural Exchange Year in 2017, the ASEAN Culinary Festival is a new way to bring deeper cultural understanding between ASEAN and Korea.

    Food & Recipes ‐ Cambodia April 2011 Featured Program: Lotus Outreach Internaonal In This Month’s Recipes: ♀ Cambodian Equee, Customs & Cuisine ♀ Menu & Recipes from Cambodia Cambodian Cuisine “The Cambodian way is to put all the food out on the table at the same time. There is no hierarchy that governs which dish is eaten irst. Soups don’t get eaten before the meal, salads don’t get eaten after and meat isn’t the main course. In addition to the various bowls and platters, Cambodians set out small bowls of ish sauce, soy sauce, salt and pepper, kafir lime slices and sliced red bird’s eye chilies. Jasmine tea, cold water and fresh rice are constantly offered and replenished (I ind that fresh fruit juices, good beer and chilled rose (wine) also make good beverage options.) Forks and spoons are put out on the table, and chopsticks if noodles are going to be served. The Cambodian style of eating is quite different from the American one. Holding the spoon in the right hand and the fork in the left, a Cambodian diner uses the fork to ill up the spoon, irst with some rice and then with some of the stew or stir‐fry – whatever dish is being sampled at the moment. Some herbs, relish a squeeze of kafir lime juice, and a few slices of chilies and ish sauce will be added so that each bite is prepared exactly to taste. If you have never eaten this way before, I heartily recommend it – it’s not only great fun, but also very satisfying.

    102 103 A CLUTCH OF RESTAURANTS RUN BY YOUNG HOMEGROWN CHEFS IS RAISING THE PROFILE OF SIEM REAP AS A BONA FIDE FOOD DESTINATION— AND PRESERVING CAMBODIA’S CULINARY TRADITIONS IN THE PROCESS. BY LARA DUNSTON PHOTOGRAPHS BY TERENCE CARTER At Siem Reap’s Mie Café, Chef Pola Siv serves his refined version of prahok k’tis in a fresh coconut. DESTINASIAN.COM – APRIL / MAY 2018 APRIL / MAY 2018 – DESTINASIAN.COM 104 105 a tian of sweet, plump tiger prawns, creamy avocado from remote Rattanakiri, fresh mint, bitter leaves, wild rice paddy herbs, and yellow mustard fowers. It too is a beautiful dish, if a bit surreal, appearing to sprout from the black plate on which it’s served. While these frst two courses could be de- scribed as Cambodian-European fusion—broc- coli is a culinary relic of French-colonial times; the olive oil is unabashedly Italian—the one that follows couldn’t be anything but pure Cam- bodian. Served in a freshly cracked coconut, it’s a light take on a pungent traditional dish called prahok k’tis. The main ingredients are Cambo- dia’s beloved prahok (fermented fsh), creamy coconut milk, minced pork, and tart roasted pea eggplants, to which the chef has judiciously added fresh prawns, slivers of wing beans and cucumber, and—with even more restraint—kaf- fr lime zest, sesbania fowers, water hyacinth buds, and bitter leaf for extra bite. I’m lunching at 34-year-old chef Pola Siv’s Mie Café, which isn’t a café at all, but rather the most sophisticated of Siem Reap’s New Cambo- dian restaurants.
