Yunnan Mushrooms and Onion Soup Hot Pot

"3 Less" Dish

 

Feature

The combination of fruit, vegetable and meat makes a more attractive and nutritious dish. Yellow capsicum, mango, papaya and pumpkin are great sources of beta carotene, which is anti-oxidative. Mushroom is a rich source of phytochemicals, which are thought to be able to improve health and reduce risks of diseases.
