Instructions

  1. Place kombu, bonito powder, soy sauce and 2 litres (8 cups) water in a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.
  2. Add daikon, leek and shiitake mushrooms and simmer, covered, for 8 minutes. Add noodles, enoki and oyster mushrooms, white fish, salmon, tofu and choy sum and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes or until fish is just cooked. Serve nabe with ponzu sauce.

Notes

TIPS: Kombu (also known as kelp) is a type of sea vegetable that gives a smoky flavour and has a chewy texture. Bonito powder is made from a specific type of dried and smoked tuna. Both are available from some supermarkets or Asian grocery stores. If unavailable, make the stock using 2 nori sheets, 2 litres (8 cups) fish stock and 2 tablespoons soy sauce (strain the stock before Step 2). You can use turnip instead of daikon.
