Very popular in Japan and Taiwan but bizarrely yet to catch on elsewhere, this vegan shabu shabu is one of the tastiest and most fun communal meals you will ever eat. It can be personalised to the individual, and different every time. Note: you’ll need to make the broth the day before, and for a really communal fun meal, you will need a portable stove on the table!
