Ingredient: fermented mud fish (pahok)

Nom banh chok is Cambodian rice noodle, often sold by vendors in the early morning, usually women, carrying it on baskets from a pole balanced on their shoulder. This food consists of noodles laboriously pounded out of rice, topped off with a fish-based yellow kreoung gravy made from lemongrass, rizhome, turmeric root and other cambodian ingredients, and served with banana blossoms, cucumber and freshly foraged wild greens.
