A great dish from nyeowzers !

******************************


This was our first nabe of the season. I love nabe and love my earthenware pot. Normally everything is brought then cooked at the table, but you can just do it on the stove in a big pot.

4-5 cups of water
1 piece of konbu :about 4"x4"
Bondashi bag, or about a TBSP of bondashi powder ( dashi is very fine fish flakes or powder from dried bonito, you can also use the small dried fish, just scoop them out before adding the main ingredients)
1TBSP soy sauce
2 TBSP mirin
1TBSP cooking sake
2 TBSP miso paste
3 packets of udon noodles ( serving for 3)

1/4 head of Chinese cabbage
5-6 thick shirk take
1pack enoki( about a cup and a half)
Top 1/3 of a daikon sliced and peeled
Fried tofu cubed ( about a cup)
Preferred meat ( I am using chicken dango, pretty much minced chicken, with onion, carrot, and small pieces of mochi, mixed with some salt and pepper then formed into the balls you see) sliced chicken, fish, thinly sliced pork, or beef also works just fine. My husband loves pig intestine...

Pour the water into your nabe/ pot. Add in the konbu, and let sit in the water for a few hours. ( you can skip this step if you don't have the time) add the bondashi and simmer on low heat for about 10-20 minutes. Take out the bondashi ( unless it was powdered) then add the soy sauce, miso, mirin, sake. It should have a salty taste.
Next cut up your veggies into manageable bite sized/ can pick up with chop sticks easily, pieces. Arrange in pot like picture. Cover with lid, and boiled on medium to low for about 20 minutes. Use you chop sticks to puck out the pieces you want, our serve it in bowls like you would soup.
Once all the goodies have been eaten, add in the udon noodles and boil again for just a few minutes until tender.
Enjoy!!
