Cherng kong Kep Chien (Fried Frog Legs)

This dish is so common at Angkor. In the wet season the children living in and around the heritage site will be carrying large plastic buckets with a little water and hopefully lots of frogs. You see them darting off along the sandy paths leading to temples and pouncing on the fleeing frogs. This food appears bountiful and is extremely delicious.

  • 450 gm (1 lb) skinned frog legs
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
