Cha Kroeung Sach Ko is a Cambodian herb paste beef stir-fry that is so aromatic, herbaceous, umami, and savory. There are many variations of this dish, everyone makes it differently. This style uses prahok and holy basil, which happens to be one of my favorite variations. I also have a chicken version (Cha Kroeung Sach Moan), also tasty.

In Khmer language, Cha means stir-fry, Kroeung means herb paste, Sach Ko means Beef.
