  • Vibrant Local Market Tour & Ingredient Exploration: Your culinary adventure kicks off with an exciting and informative visit to a bustling local market. Guided by your expert chef, you'll navigate through the lively stalls, discovering an array of fresh, exotic ingredients essential to Khmer cooking. Learn how to identify and select local vegetables, aromatic herbs, unique spices, and other staples that form the backbone of Cambodian dishes. This market tour isn't just about shopping; it's a cultural immersion, offering fascinating insights into daily Cambodian life and the importance of fresh, seasonal produce in their culinary traditions.

  • Hands-On Cooking Session (Authentic Khmer Dishes): After gathering your fresh ingredients, you'll proceed to our well-equipped, hygienic kitchen facilities. Here, under the patient and engaging instruction of your local chef, you'll embark on a truly hands-on cooking experience. You'll actively participate in preparing a selection of beloved and popular Cambodian dishes. While the exact menu may vary slightly based on seasonal availability and fresh ingredients, typical dishes often include:

    • Amok Trey (Fish Amok): Cambodia's national dish, a rich and fragrant fish curry traditionally steamed in banana leaves. You'll learn the crucial skill of preparing the essential kroeung (Khmer curry paste) from scratch using a traditional mortar and pestle.

    • Nhoam Svay Kcheay (Green Mango Salad): A refreshing, zesty, and perfectly balanced salad that exemplifies the sweet, sour, salty, and spicy harmony found in Khmer cuisine.

    • Samlor Machu Yuon (Sour Soup with Fish or Chicken): A light, appetizing soup bursting with the freshness of local herbs and vegetables, showcasing the delicate balance of sour notes.

    • Dietary Accommodations: We are happy to cater to your needs! Most dishes can be easily adapted to be vegetarian or vegan-friendly upon prior request, ensuring everyone can fully participate and enjoy the culinary creations.

  • Mastering Core Khmer Techniques & Flavors: Beyond simply following recipes, your chef will share invaluable insights into fundamental Khmer cooking techniques and philosophies. You'll discover the art of balancing the four core flavors – sweet, sour, salty, and spicy – that are paramount in Cambodian cuisine. Understand the role of key aromatic ingredients like lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, and turmeric. The experience of pounding your own kroeung is a highlight, connecting you directly to generations of Cambodian home cooks.

  • Savor Your Delicious Home-Cooked Feast: The most anticipated part of the class! Once your dishes are prepared, you'll have the immense pleasure of savoring your own delicious creations in a relaxed and friendly dining atmosphere.
