Instant Pot Shrimp on Sugar Cane (Chao Tom)
Shrimp on Sugar cane is one of my favorite Vietnamese food. Mama always makes this for us. The taste of my Chao Tom is similar to Mama’s Cha ca.
I’m only using shrimp. You can add pork paste if you like.
Sugar cane taste yummy and sweet. One of my favorite since I was a kid. My grandma (lola lusing) has a lot of sugarcane plants in her backyard.
