Chinese Hot Pot

Hot pot is the most famous and favourite dish in China, especially in winter. Created by poor boatmen around Yangtze River in Chongqing area and then spread all over the country.

One of the reason it become popular is that hot pot is very easy to prepared and can make people get warm easily in winter. People gather around a small electricity pot or gas pot and choose whatever they want to eat and put them in the pot.  Then they can just wait to eat. 

It's very easy to prepared.

First, go to the market to buy ingredients for the hot pot( Chinese Market always have all ingredients that hot pot need). 

You need:   green onion, ginger and garlic for the pot soup, or you can just buy the hot pot seasoning in the supermarket.

Then you need meats or vegetables that you want to eat. For example: lamp, beef, cabbage, Tofu and so on. 

I recommend to buy this kind of meat. Because its very thin so it is well get more flavour. 

In addition, if you need more flavour you can buy hoisin sauce or ma zhi(a traditional hot pot sauce in China ). 

All these ingredients you can buy them in Chinese market.

After all these work is done you can use your induction cooker to taste this delicious food with your family.

 ( If you want to go to restaurant to taste hot pot you can find in every China town. In Sydney, you can also find it in Eastwood, just opposite the train station)
