Kratie province is famous for Krolan

Kratié or Kracheh (Khmer: ក្រចេះ, literally "Powder Cosmetic") is a province in northeastern Cambodia. It borders Stung Treng to the north, Mondulkiri to the east, Kampong Thom to the west, Kampong Cham and Vietnam to the south.

The capital of the province is The Town of Kratié located in the Kratié District.

Krolan is one of local product in Kratie Province which is made of rice mixed with coconut and bean and cooked in the bamboo tubes. Kratie province is famous for Krolan, in particular Thmo Kreae Commune 10km north of Kratie.

This product has been significantly becoming a common job for people in the province and some families have been for more than half a century. If you travel across this province, you will see the Krolan is sold along roadside and waterfront in Kratie. This Krolan is also transported to Phnom Penh markets each day but it is cooked with more salt.

It can be kept up to two days without refrigeration. Making Krolan is good business since the 40 % of the cost come from the domestic supply and this business can contribute to poverty alleviation for people along the Mekong River.
