It’s surprisingly easy and wholly filling.

1. Heat the hotpot up in the oven at roughly 400°F for 5 minutes or so. Enough to get the whole thing nice and piping.
2. Pull it out and put it on your stove on high with some sesame oil and potato for a minute.
3. Add about half a cup of hot water, a bundle of yuba, and spices to taste (e.g. a cube of Golden Curry Sauce Mix).
4. Let that boil off before adding a couple cups of cooked rice, one shredded carrot, a couple inches of chopped ginger, some snow peas, and some pre-steamed gyoza.
5. Turn the element down as low as it can go, cover with the lid and let it sit for 10 minutes or so to brown the bottom.
