Fanny & Heston took a days cookery course in Phnom Penh, this started with a trip to the colourful local market to buy the produce, before returning to the school to cook spring rolls, steamed fish amok in coconut leaf, chicken with ginger and pumpkin stuffed with custard - it was all very palatable and though I think Ell held me back a little, it was a successful day. Actually, if truth be known, the kitchen staff came out to admire Ells knife skills as she sped thru the slicing of a lemongrass, she was putting the finishing touches to her dish as I was still wrestling the seeds out of a red chilli.
