The recipes included feature favorites such as Curry Fish Cakes, Consomme with Caramelized Beef and Star Anise, Stir-fried Chicken with Chilies and Cashews, and Banana Sesame Fritters. Also included is an ingredients section that includes the Cambodian names as well as the Vietnamese or Thai names of the ingredients whenever necessary for ease of shopping. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAuthentic Cambodian recipes include: \u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sweet Potato Rolls with Ginger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pineapple and Ginger Ceviche\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rice Porridge with Fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Khmer Curry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Soy Glazed Spare Ribs with Star Anise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sweet Coconut Waffles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e And many more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eTake a chance and try a whole new cooking experience with \n\u003ci\u003eCambodian Cooking\u003c\/i\u003e! \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAbout \u003ci\u003eAct for Cambodia\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eCambodia was a country at war for many years.
