Crisp, golden strands of dough curl into the charming shape of a tiny bird’s nest. Known in Khmer as នំសំបុកចាប [num sambok chap], this traditional fried sweet snack is both delicate and wonderfully crunchy. Finished with sugar syrup, it is the kind of Cambodian treat that makes simple ingredients feel surprisingly special.
