Originating in Mongolia, fire pot consists of a simmering pot of broth placed at the center of the table, surrounded by a variety of raw ingredients such as thinly sliced meat, vegetables, and noodles. Each diner cooks their own ingredients in the broth, creating a personalized and interactive dining experience. With its aromatic flavors and endless customization options, Mongolian fire pot is a delightful way to gather with friends and family for a memorable meal.

MONGOLIAN FIRE POT
Fun, fun, fun!!!! My husband and I did this fire pot for our last dinner party. Everyone loved it and the dinner went on for a long time with lots of laughs and conversation. We also served an assortment of wines. You can serve any meat, seafood or vegetables you wish. Fried rice and Kim Chee are great accompaniments. I would plan 4 people to a pot. We used two pots for our party. This is so much nicer than the messy oil fondues. Cooking time depends on how long you want your party to go on!! LOL
