Recipe description
Submitted by Caloundra Christian College.
Amok is traditionally mild and slightly sweet with a strong lemongrass and coconut flavour complimented by turmeric. Very commonly served also with fish instead of chicken in Cambodia.
Variations
If you like a touch of heat, add a small amount of chilli when adding other spices.
