Cambodian Waffles (Num Poum)
Num Poum are Cambodian waffles, thin and crispy, with a subtle sweetness from palm sugar and richness from coconut milk. They're made with a blend of rice and wheat flours, which gives them a delicate texture. The batter comes together quickly, then cooks up fast on a hot waffle iron until golden and crisp.

Mix Batter and Cook Waffles
In a bowl, combine the 1/2 cup rice flour, 1/2 cup wheat flour, 1/2 cup coconut milk, 3/4 cup palm sugar, 2 eggs, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk everything together until you have a smooth batter. Brush a waffle iron with oil, pour in the batter, and cook over an open fire until the waffles are light brown and crispy.
