Thai Shrimp Paste Steamed Cabbage (Easy Rice Cooker Version)

Thai shrimp paste has a unique savory and fragrant flavor, while steaming cabbage retains its natural sweetness. It becomes rich and flavorful after absorbing the essence of the shrimp paste. Main Ingredients: Half a head of cabbage (washed and sliced or torn into chunks by hand), a little minced garlic. Seasonings: Thai Shrimp Paste: 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce: 1/2 teaspoon Sugar: 1/2 teaspoon Water: 2 tablespoons Instructions: Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, first mix the Thai shrimp paste, fish sauce, sugar, and water until well combined (the shrimp paste is thick, so it's recommended to break it up well). Assemble: Place the cabbage in a deep dish. Pour the prepared shrimp paste sauce over the cabbage and sprinkle with minced garlic. Steam in Rice Cooker: Add 0.8 cups of water to the outer pot of the rice cooker and press the start button. Mix: Once done, thoroughly mix the cabbage with the sauce at the bottom before serving.
