Lobster and White Fungus in Fish Soup Hot Pot
Sally POON, Dietitian of Hong Kong Nutritional Association, said "Seafood accompanied by assorted vegetables and various kinds of mushroom: this hot pot fulfils the principle of 'more vegetables and less meat' for healthy eating. Konjac vermicelli is low in calories and high in dietary fibre. It is filling, and it helps us control calorie intake."
