If you have eaten hot pot before then you know the process is fool proof and very easy. Arrange your cooking implement on the table.
If you have a hot pot and a single burner stove or better yet profane or portable butane fueled stove then it should not be difficult.
Alternately, you can also use electric or induction version cooker/hot pot or even rice cooker but boil the stock first in the oven for faster action.
Pour the stock or water in the hot pot and let to boil on medium heat. Add in seafood soup base and taste the broth.
Season it with salt and ground pepper, if still necessary. Add in different types of Chinese balls in batches, depending on the number of diners.
When the broth is boiling again and balls are partially cooked add the vegetables and noodles, also in batches.
Simmer until the balls and veggies are cooked through. Transfer to individual bowls, slather with the tasty broth, serve with the dipping sauce .
