If it’s thinly sliced, saucy, with French onions and eggs, then it is actually a Khmer dish called Bistec which Khmers were influenced by the French/Russian dish they call Beef Stroganoff.

Actually no. If it’s thinly sliced, saucy, with French onions and eggs, then it is actually a Khmer dish called Bistec which Khmers were influenced by the French/Russian dish they call Beef Stroganoff.

You mean shaking beef? Which use bite-sized cubes. All the veggies are same except dipping sauce is different.

@@lovelymonster what the heck does shaking beef even mean? It doesn’t make sense. Bistec makes more sense in the Cambodian language.

@@BeauBodhi88 obvious this is not steak. Beef shaking is just a wrong translation. Luc lac means dice because the beef is sliced to small as a dice. This dish originated from Vietnam, the name tells all, why they need to borrow name.

@@lovelymonster Steak is cut meat including beef. This French-influenced Beef Stroganoff dish originated in Cambodia who were French and American allies and a former protectorate, not colony like Vietnam. And it’s only natural for Cambodia who was an ally to adopt and be susceptible to French and American cultures. Just like the Num Pain Pate sandwich, curry, and crepes.
