Recipe Instructions:

In a dual hot pot, add all the ingredients for the tomato base into one compartment and mix well to combine.
Add all the ingredients for the spicy chili base into the other compartment and mix well to combine.
Place the dual hot pot on a portable induction burner or portable gas burner and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
You can also just make one soup base and use a round stainless steel hot pot instead.
Meanwhile, in a shallow saucepan, add soy sauce, peanut butter, satay paste, sesame oil, sugar and water.
Heat over medium heat and stir well to combine until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
Set aside.
Place prepare and chopped vegetables, meat, seafood, and noodles of your choice together with the dipping sauce and any optional toppings for the dipping sauce on the table.
Customize your own dipping sauce with optional toppings, if desired.
Add a few ingredients at a time into the boiling soup base.
Make sure to cook all meat and seafood thoroughly before serving.
For all meat, let it boil for at least 1 minute.
For seafood, let it boil for at least 3 minutes.
For vegetables, allow it to boil for 30 seconds.
Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
