Cha kh'nhei (Khmer: ឆាខ្ញី) is a Cambodian stir fry dish made from meat (usually chicken, eel, or frog) and ginger root flavoured with black pepper, garlic,[1] soy sauce and palm sugar, and garnished with holy basil leaves. The fresh ginger root is peeled, cut into matchstick size pieces, and cooked very briefly to retain its strong flavour and crunchy texture.[2]
