Cambodian Fish Soup Recipe

Cambodian fish soup, also known as Amok in Cambodia, is a delicious soup made with cod and coconut cream. The soup gets much of its flavor from the fresh herbs in this recipe, including fresh cilantro and fresh mint. The best way to serve this fish soup (for looks and for taste) is with a beautiful, hearty dollop of coconut cream on top. MMM! Enjoy!

Notes

  • Traditional Amok is steamed in banana leaves. It sometimes takes the texture of custard. This amok has similar ingredients to traditional Cambodian amok, but has a different cooking style and, therefore, a different texture. In my opinion, this version is best served over rice.
