Spicy hotpot

Overview

Spicy hot pot is very popular among spicy food lovers because it can be highly DIY. The spicy hotpot base is ready-made, and salt, sugar, chili, etc. can be added according to individual tastes. It takes a long time to prepare the ingredients, but it is easy to fry, which I really like!
