Khmer Cooking Class

Cook three classic Khmer dishes, starting with a hands-on market visit.

The class begins at a local wet market, where the host explains the herbs, pastes, and produce that give Khmer food its flavor - lemongrass, prahok, galangal, and kroeung paste. Back at the open-air kitchen, guests prepare fish amok, a stir-fry, and a soup from scratch, working in small pairs at individual stations. The host demonstrates each technique before guests try it themselves, and the class ends with everyone sitting down together to eat what they cooked.
