When I go have hot pot at the restaurants I usually order half/half - one spicy soup and the other one regular chicken stock base or the chicken stock base + thousand year old egg + cilantro.

It's actually pretty easy to make.

Make your own stock or buy campbell's chicken stock and add the egg + cilantro.

As for the spicy one I have no clue how to make that one.

If you are feeling lazy just go buy the LKK (Lee Kum Kee) ready made hot pot bases. All you have to do is add water and boil.

I think in the end the hot pot soup base doesn't really matter its the sauce you have (soya, sesame, bull's satay sauce, chili oil, green onion, ginger, cilantro to name a few)
