Spicy Tofu Hotpot

Could not make it to an Asian grocer, so used dry noodles. Use about half as much, weight-wise, to avoid the expansion, otherwise it will just be saucy noodles (but still tasty!). I will make it again, the broth is flavorful, it smells amazing, and it's pretty easy to make!

i just made this last night.... followed recipe, and it was AWESOME!!!!! at the end, i added more soy sauce though, for my taste buds. thanks for recipe!!! ;-)

Hubby: This is my favorite new soup We tripled the recipe. We added additional mushrooms, a few carrots, half a cabbage, and a splash of fish sauce. The fish sauce was a nice addition. My husband loved the soup tofu and all. This soup would be great with shrimp, steak, or chicken. This is a keeper. Pros: Sweet Heat

Great dish! I found the noodles in the refrigerated section of an Asian grocery store. They didn't have 'lo mein' on the packaging, instead they were just labeled Chinese-style noodles. The noodles soak up most of the liquid, so it wasn't really like a soup, but that made it easier to eat with chop sticks. When I make this again I want to add more vegetables and I might leave out the tofu. Normally I love tofu, but it didn't really add much to this dish.

Awesome!! we used Udon noodles in place of Lo Mein, but otherwise same recipe. The broth with garlic and ginger is fabulous!

Great dish, and very quick to make. Works well with shrimp if you're not a tofu fan.
