I'm not that happy with storebought nabe soup, and you have to buy a lot of it anyway, so I thought that if I made the soup myself I could save money and adjust the flavor to our tastes too.

This makes a lot of soup stock, so keep some on reserve and add it to the pot later on when there isn't much left in there. This way the flavors won't get too thin and it's very convenient. For 4 to 5 servings. Recipe by Kazukun mama

Steps

1

Make the chicken dumplings. Put all the dumpling ingredients in a bowl and mix with your hands until it's sticky.
2

Make the soup stock for the hotpot. Put all the soup stock ingredients in an earthenware pot and put on the heat.
3

Cut up all the ingredients into easy to eat pieces.
4

When the stock starts to boil, add the carrots, daikon radish and other hard vegetables, and scoop in bite sized spoonfuls of the chicken dumpling mixture.
5

Put in the rest of the vegetables and the pork, and it's done. Yuzu pepper goes well with this.
6

Ramen noodles for hotpots is a great 'shime' (the last thing added to the pot). Just add them to the remaining soup at the end and cook through.
