When you think of Cambodia, Angkor Wat and stunning landscapes may come to mind first. But one of the most rewarding experiences you can enjoy here is learning how to cook traditional Khmer food.
Why Join a Cooking Class in Cambodia?
Cooking classes are not just about food — they’re about culture. You’ll shop at local markets, discover fresh tropical ingredients, and learn the secrets behind famous Cambodian dishes such as:
- Fish Amok – a fragrant fish curry steamed in banana leaves.
- Beef Lok Lak – stir-fried beef served with rice and tangy dipping sauce.
- Spring Rolls – fresh or fried, filled with herbs and vegetables.
It’s a hands-on way to connect with Cambodia’s traditions and bring home recipes you can cook again for family and friends.
Where to Find Cooking Classes
- Siem Reap – Many schools near Angkor Wat offer half-day or full-day classes.
- Phnom Penh – Great for market tours combined with cooking lessons.
- Kampot & Battambang – Smaller towns where you can enjoy more personal, local experiences.
Getting There Made Easy
Most cooking schools are located a short drive from city centers or local markets. Instead of worrying about directions or public transport, book a private taxi. Your driver will take you to the class, wait for you, and bring you back comfortably.
A Memory to Take Home
Joining a cooking class in Cambodia is more than just preparing food — it’s about tasting history, culture, and the warmth of Khmer hospitality.
