3. Make Shrimp Paste On Lemongrass:
Wrap the shrimp mixture around each lemongrass stalk skillfully and neatly, placing them on a plate of suitable size. Ensure the wrapping is tight and even around the lemongrass.
Next, place the shrimp-wrapped lemongrass on a plate and steam in a steamer for 5-7 minutes.

Shrimp Paste On Lemongrass offers a delightful crunch from the shrimp and the distinct aroma of lemongrass.

Tips for successfully making Shrimp Paste On Lemongrass:
- Selecting fresh live shrimp as the main ingredient for the paste enhances the dish’s flavor.
- If you prefer less oily paste, you can bake it either on a charcoal stove or in an oven at 200-250 degrees Celsius for about 20-30 minutes until the paste turns golden instead of frying it as mentioned earlier.
How to make Shrimp Paste On Lemongrass dipping sauce:
Mix 2 tablespoons of sugar with 4 tablespoons of water, stirring well until the sugar dissolves completely. Then add 2 tablespoons of fish sauce to the sugar-water mixture, followed by 2 tablespoons of lime juice, and stir well.
