This is the Szechuan hot pot soup base. It is a big package with some orange and red goop in it. Kind of a clay texture. I only used a little bit because it can get pretty spicy.

Here are the roasted sea weed flakes. They are delicious. I got these at Costco. This is optional. You can also get the roasted seaweed sheets and tear them up into little strips and add for garnish.

Pour the soup stock into a pot. Add the Szechuan base in when the water starts to boil. Stir to mix. Cut about 1/2 inch piece of the green onion and add in to pot.

Add your noodles. Remember to keep stirring after this because the noodles will stick to the bottom if you're not careful. (I wasn't careful \ud83d\ude05)

...and cut up as much pork belly as you like. Mmmmm. You can brown these in a nonstick pan if you wish to give it a little oomph. I was lazy and didn't \ud83d\ude01. Also chop up the rest of your green onion.

Add all of the mushrooms and pork into the pot. Once the mushrooms look cooked, grab an egg.

Put the egg into a small bowl. Using the bowl, slip the egg into the pot gently. At this point the soup will thicken. If you see any foam on top, skim it off with a spoon and discard.
