Cambodian White Sauce

Teuk Ktis Doung for Poat Ang

A wonderful creamy and savory sauce with spicy hints from White Kampot pepper.  Traditionally served with BBQ corn on the cob, this sauce works well in fusion dishes such as pasta, or any dish calling for white sauce.  

Ingredients

Heat saucepan on medium heat.  Add all ingredients but the green onion.  Stir occasionally until sugar and salt dissolve and the sauce begins to bubble, lower the heat for reduction.  Turn off heat and stir in green onions.  

Directions

Serving Suggestions

  • Drizzle over BBQ or steamed  corn on the cob, and top with fresh ground White Kampot pepper.

  • Pour over pasta with mushroom, spinach, top with roasted pine nuts, moderately spicy red chili, and parsley.
