Kreoung

Khmer pronunciation ‘kreoung’ is a Cambodian word for ‘pounded spices and herbs paste’ that make the base flavours of many Cambodian dishes.  Their distinctly exotic flavours and aroma distinguishes Khmer dishes from neighbouring countries such as Thailand and Vietnam.

​

Kreoung is tradition­­ally made by finely chopped herbs including lemongrass, turmeric and many others.  It is then grinded in a mortar and pestle, with modern kitchens often now using mechanical equipment. 

​

There are many variations of Kreoung - generally falling into three unique recipes of yellow, red or green Kreoung.  Kreoung is a uniquely individual recipe and we hope you enjoy Bunnath’s green Kreoung ‘signature blend’.­­­­
