Start by preparing your broth. In a large pot, heat up water and add the malatang spice mix or your choice of spices to create a flavorful base.

While the broth is simmering, chop up all your vegetables and proteins into bite-sized pieces.

Once the broth is ready, bring it to a rolling boil.

Add your choice of proteins first, allowing them to cook through. This usually takes a few minutes.

After the proteins are cooked, add in the vegetables and noodles. Cook until everything is tender.

Taste the broth and adjust the flavor with more spices if needed.

Once everything is cooked, serve it hot in bowls.
