Cambodia - definitely not the country I was originally thinking of doing, but I ran across a recipe that just jumped out at me as challenging and different.  Amok Moan, or Coconut Chicken Curry Parcels, where the chicken is steamed in banana leaves - wow!  Once again, I headed to Lucky's Supermarket for some of the more unusual ingredients, including the banana leaves.  And it worked, it was really delicious!  I started with a Cambodian Hot and Sour Soup, which is one of my favourite soups, and this one, made with oyster mushrooms, did not disappoint - it was really flavourful.  Then followed the Amok Moan and a Char Kroeung, or a chicken stir fry with a tasty sauce, served on rice vermicelli.  Mmmmmm!
