Flavoring Agent in Soups and Stews: Prahok is a key component in many traditional Cambodian soups and stews, such as samlor kako, where a small amount is enough to enhance the overall flavor and add depth. The paste is usually dissolved in the broth during cooking.

Wrapped and Grilled (Prahok Ang): Some recipes involve mixing prahok with other ingredients like pork, lemongrass, and chilies, wrapping the mixture in banana leaves, and grilling it. This method helps to meld the flavors and mellow some of the pungency.
