Deer Hot Pot

This is hot pot, hot and spicy! My favourite winter treat. :)

think of it as an asian fondue, replace the oil/cheese with (in this case) spicy broth. Thin shaved slices of meat will cook up fast... dip in soy and eat...
 
Like hr said, slice the meat in thin pieces... Boil the soup first, then throw everything you like in there from meat to seafoods, or mushrooms and vegetables....and yum! Easy and fast.
 
I know anyone who has had hot pot once in their life will be addicted! Here is the recipe.

Okay, depends on where you live. If you live in Greater Vancouver area it's gonna be a lot easier for you. Yes you need to find a hot pot bowl first. Go to any one of T&T grocery stores (Richmond, Surrey, Vancouver, Burnaby and Coquitlam), they must have it. Print the pic I posted off and bring it with you if you think it's hard to explain to the store clerks. If you don't have a hot pot propane stove, they're on sale in these stores right now which only cost you 25 bucks each. I use the two-part bowl because my daughter doesn't eat spicy, so half of the bowl was spicy and the other half was plain.

Now once you have these ready, you need your soup base. T&T also has them, many kinds/brands of them. I prefer Taohuabi Laoganma.

When you prepare the soup, just open one bag of soup base, one bag is really enough, pour it in the bowl with water. If you like mushrooms, fish balls, meat balls....whatever you like, put them in the bowl right now!

While the soup is being cooked, you can slice the deer meat now. You'd better take the meat out of your freezer to defrost one hour before you slice the meat. The slices have to be really really thin. So a good knife is a must!

Once the soup is boiled, move the bowl to propane stove and fire the stove up! Now you can start your hot pot, put your deer meat, lamb, beef, seafoods....in the bowl, and enjoy with your family!
