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 ginger root is peeled, cut into matchstick size pieces, and cooked very briefly to retain its strong flavour and crunchy texture.[2]

It is recommended to use firm young ginger, which doesn't have a tough and stringy texture. Garlic is cooked in a wok until golden before adding and stir-frying meat and finally adding sauce, sugar and julienned ginger.[3]
