Last night we took a trip down memory lane
and went back to Kep Cambodia. Some of
you may or may not know that last year Stu and I backpacked around South East
Asia, we travelled up from the Philippines, to Singapore, Cambodia, and Vietnam
and back down to Thailand. Kep is
well-known fishmongers town, on the south coast of Cambodia just off the border of Vietnam, with more fishnets than the backstreets of Soho
London or Amsterdam’s red light district. This town in particular known as Kep is renowned for its Kampot
Green pepper.  |

Fact: Green pepper used to be the number one
pepper in the world and is the key ingredient in many French restaurants. Ask WIKI

SO. I think you get where I am going for
last nights theme dinner? Kep –
Cambodia. We did what we could with the blue swimmer crabs and the peppers’ we
could find at ASDA and came up with these bad boys.
Between the crab fights in the sink,
grating ginger on our new “fan-dangle” grater, we picked up the other weekend,
we managed to successfully pull off one delicious pepper crab Cambodian styles,
white buns, rice and all.
We loosely followed this recipe, with the
addition of a few how–to video’s on youtube on how to clean a crab and remove
the apron. Check this recipe out!

| Hello in Cambodian - Sous-dey! |
I did learn from our last crab adventure that, chicken broth or stock is a good way to get the crab soft & juicy. - In case you wanted to know!
In other #cassieskitchen news, I am very happy and excited about my new job, I have been at Covent Garden for 3 weeks and I am learning so much and taking it all in!
Big shout out to Stu this week, he brought me an Ipad so I can blog more now, as I am not at home as much anymore!
Check out more pics here of the latest adventures of #cassieskitchen on pinterest.
FYI if you are a candy crush addict check this out.
Bloody hilarious. :)
Later kids xx
