(Curry fish soup with young jack fruit.)
Curry fish soup with young green jack fruit is delicious Khmer ethic food. The authentic recipe cooked with fish, but some Khmer Krom prefer this recipe cook with chicken.
Back home, whenever my uncle visits us, he always bring some young jackfruit for me to cook with chicken for him. :)
Snakehead fish favor with light curry sauce, and pickle fish(pahok) is also one of my late paternal grandfather favorite childhood foods. Each year my dad make sure we cook curry fish with young green jack fruit for food offerings on New Year Eve, in honor of my late paternal grandfather.
