🇰🇭 Cambodia recipe
Lok Lak
Lok Lak is one of Cambodia's most beloved and accessible dishes, a testament to the Khmer love of bold, simple flavors. Cubes of tender beef are seared at extreme heat until caramelized and smoky, then served atop a bed of crisp lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and red onion. The dish is accompanied by a signature lime and black pepper dipping sauce that cuts through the richness of the meat with bright acidity.
