Here in Siem Reap, we find it very hard to do anything with out MSG in a stock or everything in fact and garlic, either already chopped and deep fried and sprinked on top of a soup or just chopped finely and added and cooked to make the stock. Hope there is someway i can see the remaining series. Cambodian food would rock your world!!!
Continued success,
