Tips:
1 The selected ingredients can be completely according to personal preference, as long as they do not become too soft or easily (meaning "soft and mushy").
2 Leaf vegetables are not suitable for hot pot dishes but may be added if desired.
3 Except for
tofuwhich is too soft, various bean products can be used in hot pot dishes.
4 Since most of the ingredients have already been blanched to near readiness, very little oil is needed to cook.
