Japanese Hot Pots: Comforting One-Pot Meals

Curry Chicken Hot Pot : page 107

Love this recipe and its so much healthier than making the S & B or House curry with the cubes--only one tablespoon of oil. I used a very strong blend of curry so I only put three tablespoons in and it seemed to be plenty, however I would add a little more soy sauce next time or perhaps some salt instead.

Yokohama Beef Hot Pot : page 123

The flavor of this dish is quite good but there was very little broth. Next time I make it I think would add some beef broth.
