Samlor machu
Template:Short description Template:Italic title Template:Infobox prepared food
Samlor machu (Template:Langx – 'sour soup') is a Khmer term for a category of sour soups.
The sour flavour of the soup comes from the use of tamarind (Script error: No such module "Lang".), however variations also include other tangy fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes (Script error: No such module "Lang".), pineapples (Script error: No such module "Lang".), water spinach (Script error: No such module "Lang".), leaf celery, as well as Tiliacora triandra leaves (Script error: No such module "Lang".).[1]
Meat in this type of soup is usually that of either chicken, fish, pork, beef, lobster or crab. In the U.S. and Canada, instead of using fresh tamarind like in Cambodia, a powdered tamarind soup base mix is also used by the diaspora. One popular brand is manufactured by Knorr.[2]
