Instant pot Tambo nga Laswa (bamboo shoot with coconut milk Stew)

Instant pot Tambo nga Laswa (bamboo shoot with coconut milk Stew)

This is an Ilonggo Food. Most people eat this food for lunch together with steamed rice. I've been eating this since I was a kid. I love this food. It looks like a dessert because of coconut milk but it is not a dessert. This is only known in Iloilo. I don't think other parts of the Philippines make this food.
I always use fresh bamboo shoots. I also tried frozen one. Fresh bamboo shoot taste better and a little bit expensive. I never tried bamboo shoot in a can. I also prefer fresh jute leaves than frozen one. Fresh jute leaves is cheaper. The frozen one is made in the Philippines and already slimy once you thaw it. I love a lot of okra on my food.
