Pork groeung

Today Soeun flavoured pork with a mix of spices called groeng, its usually used in stir fry. We usually use a mortar and pestle, but we don't have one here. Lemongrass, garlic, lime leaf, turmeric/lmit, galangal/romgdang

He put the lime leaf, sliced tumeric and galangal in some foil and put it over a flame, then into the little blender thingy. Still working out how to use it, the stuff didn't get as ground up as he would have liked.

Next in was chopped garlic and lemongrass.
,

Then he added some salt, sugar, knorr etc and the pork to sit in it for awhile. Then fried it and ate with rice! Yum!

Herbs

The saw herb plant we got from my parents (they got it from some Cambodians who live in Australia). I carried it back on the plane in May.
