Are you looking for a surprising dish from the Big Green Egg? This Japanese hotpot is easy to make, is full of flavour and will be on your table quickly. The Japanese name for this cooking style is nabemono and the hotpot is made in a donabe, which literally means ‘earthenware pot’. The preparation is simple. You put all the ingredients in the pot that you place on the grid of your kamado, but in this case you leave the lid off. Consequently, this authentic dish will take on that delicious flavour for which the Big Green Egg is known.
