Top 7 in Top 12 unique traditional specialties of Cambodians.
Red ants stir-fried with beef are one of the Cambodian specialties you must try. Red ants of all sizes are marinated with cows, then stir-fried with ginger, peppers, garlic, shallots ... and season to taste the seasoning just used. Ants have a slightly pungent smell, mixed with re-fried beef... It all makes for a unique - strange - but very appetizing dish. The flavor of this dish is more intense when a lot of chili peppers are added. Red ant dishes can be served with rice.
