Lau Lau


I never knew how easy it was to make lau lau until I went camping with my daughter's preschool 6 years ago. That time they steamed it for 4 hours. This time, it was 1 hour in the Instant Pot with natural pressure release. I only bought one bag (1 lb) of taro leaf but they were big leaves so I only used 2 per luau. That and 3 big chunks of pork made 4 lau lau. Came out ono!

I like the idea of making something different with the same sauce.
