Preparation Time: 20 mins Cooking Time: 55 mins Serving: 4

Ingredients:

  • 600g - 1kg lamb hot pot slices
  • 1/2 leek, cut on the bias into 1/2-inch slices
  • 1 (1-inch) knob ginger, sliced
  • 4 wood ear mushrooms, soaked
  • 3 Chinese red dates
  • 2 dried shiitake mushrooms, soaked
  • 2 tablespoons dried goji berries, soaked
  • 1 tablespoon dried shrimp, soaked
  • 1/2 daikon radish, sliced thinly (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1/2 napa cabbage, shredded
  • 1 pound firm tofu, frozen and defrosted
  • 1 cup mung bean vermicelli, soaked

Broth

  • 1 lamb bone or beef femur bone, cut into 3-inch segments, soaked for 30 min to purge blood
  • 4 (1/8-inch-thick) slices ginger
  • 2 green onions, sliced 1/2-inch-thick

Dipping Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons sesame paste
  • 1 teaspoon chive paste (also called leek flower sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon red fermented tofu (also called fermented bean curd), blended   
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese black vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine
  • 1 tablespoon minced scallions
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • chopped Chinese pickled garlic, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon chili oil     

Instructions:

Broth:

  1. In a stock pot, cover beef or lamb bones with cold water. Bring to a boil & let boil for 3 minutes, until a layer of gunk forms. Remove bone & reserve. Discard the rest of the water. Rinse & rub bones in cold water until water runs clear.
  2. In a pressure cooker or Instant Pot, cover bones with 4 quarts water. Add ginger & onion. Cook at high pressure for 45 minutes. Release & strain. Taste & season with salt, sugar & chicken powder. On its own, the broth should taste barely unseasoned & look very clear.

Dipping Sauce:

  • In a small bowl, combine desired ingredients & mix until smooth. If it's too clumpy, add some warm broth to thin out the mixture.

The hot pot:

  1. In a pot, bring strained stock & the leek, ginger, mushrooms, dates, shiitakes, goji berries & dried shrimp to a simmer. Let simmer for about 15 minutes. Add the daikon & get ready to eat.
  2. To serve, bring the hot pot to a boil. Using chopsticks, place slices of raw meat, tofu & vegetables in the boiling broth & swish until cooked through. Enjoy with the dipping sauce.
