Brunei DarussalamSoto BruneiSoto is a common name for a soup dish in Southeast Asian countries with Malayinfluences such as Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore.The stock for Soto Brunei is typically beef based although condiments may includeshredded chicken, sliced fish cakes or crab sticks, and hard boiled eggs, among others.What sets Soto apart from one country to the next are the differences in the use ofspices, the texture and the toppings of the soup. In Malaysia for example, Soto maybe eaten with rice cakes while in Brunei Darussalam, Soto is typically consumed witheither rice or egg noodles.Soto Brunei can be served for breakfast, lunch, high tea or even dinner. It is bestserved while the soup is still piping hot. The nature of the spices used in Soto Bruneimakes it a perfect dish one may choose to have on a cold rainy day or as a remedyfor a nasty cold.To order Soto in Brunei, it is important to remember that the noodles are referredto according to its color. Putih (white) for rice noodles and kuning (yellow) for eggnoodles. Interestingly, when the soup is taken with both rice and egg noodles, theaction of marrying both noodles together created the name Soto Kawin (married).Hence, if chicken is the preferred main topping, one would order Soto Ayam Putih orSoto Ayam Kuning or Soto Ayam Kawin.For those who just need to have that extra hot chili spice with everything in their food,asking for lada rindu to add to the dish is a sure-fire way of firing up the appetite, somuch so that they surely long for more.5

CambodiaKhmer CurryTraditional Khmer curries don’t follow a strict recipe, just certain key ingredients. Thisallows for a certain flexibility for those who want to customize it according to theirvaried palettes. It is a dish that inspires delicious experimentation, which has producedmany different recipes nationwide with varying levels of spice! However, most Khmercurries are pretty mild and mellow with sweet tones --- very soothing for the palette.If you are in Cambodia, there are, of course, plenty of chilis nearby to spice things up.Usually, you can find cooks serving up Khmer curry with the choice of either chicken,pork, beef, duck, or even frog. The thick, flavorsome, and aromatic broth is generallymade with coconut, cream, fresh milk, fish sauce, and sweet potatoes. This isaccompanied by garlic, shallots, turmeric, various herbs, and ginger. Then it’s up tothe chef to decide what goes into his or her Khmer curry!Khmer curry is sometimes served by itself to enjoy the savory meat flavors but it’susually served alongside noodles, rice, and baguettes.9
