Num akor or num ah kor (Khmer: នំអាកោរ) is a Cambodian steamed rice cake made from fermented rice flour.

Etymology

In Khmer, the term num (នំ) refers to cakes, cookies, or many desserts in general.^[1]

The batter consists of rice flour, palm sugar, and water, left to ferment overnight before being steamed in small molds. They are served with coconut cream or grated coconut.^[2]^[3] In modern versions pandan leaf juice is sometimes added to the batter.^[3]

In Cambodia, num akor is commonly sold in markets such as Old Market in Siem Reap,^[4]^[5] as well as Orussey Market^[6] and Central Market in Phnom Penh, typically in sets of four to six cakes. It is eaten as a snack, dessert, or during festive occasions.^[4]^[5]
