A medley of Napa cabbage, shiitake and enoki mushrooms, bok choy, and carrots join forces with silky glass noodles and protein-packed tofu to create a dish thatβs as nourishing as it is satisfying.

Perfect for family dinners or cozy gatherings, this hot pot is cooked right on the stovetop and served in the center of the table for a communal dining experience, making it a must-try for fans of traditional Chinese cuisine.
Prepare all ingredients by thinly slicing the pork belly, chopping the vegetables, soaking the glass noodles in warm water for 10-15 minutes, and cubing the tofu.
In a large hot pot or deep pot, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sliced ginger, stirring until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken or pork broth and bring to a gentle boil. Stir in soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, salt, and white pepper to season the broth.
Reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the napa cabbage, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms to the broth, cooking for 5 minutes.
Gradually add the bok choy, tofu, enoki mushrooms, and soaked glass noodles. Allow to simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Using chopsticks or a slotted spoon, carefully lay the thinly sliced pork belly into the hot pot. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the pork is cooked through.
Adjust seasoning if needed, and top the hot pot with chopped scallions and optional red chili slices for added heat.
Place the hot pot in the center of the dining table and serve it with individual bowls. Allow diners to scoop portions into their own bowls and enjoy.
