Instant Pot Mini Lau Lau

Mini lau lau consists of one 2" piece of meat, a little fat and a chunk of yam or salt cod, sprinkle of Hawaiian salt, one large or 2-3 small or medium taro leaves. In an Instant Pot, it takes one hour and quick release. Definitely less than the 8 hours we cook our large lau lau.

Our usual go to:

1 3 lb. fresh corned beef, pre seasoned, cut into 2" cubes (usually about 20 pieces)

1 - 2 lb. luau leaves, if stems available, strip and cut into 2" pieces

2 yams cut into same amount of pieces as meat

regular foil

Hawaiian salt to taste

Tightly wrap lau, meat and yam into bundles and cover with foil. I can usually fit about 5 or 6 in the pot. Put one cup of water, trivet, then fit the lau lau in the Instant Pot. Set on manual for 60 minutes and QR.
