Instructions
1. Prepare the fish paste: Grip the fish meat with your fingers and use the side of the knife to beat it. Mince the fish until it's fine. Flatten the minced fish, fold it back onto itself a few times, and mince it again. Repeat this process until the fish is a fine paste.
2. Prepare the shrimp: Cut the shrimp in half and remove the innards. Slice them open to remove the guts. Mince the shrimp and then mix it with the fish paste. Flatten the mixture with the side of the chef's knife.
3. Add cilantro, green onion, dried orange peel, and ginger to the fish and shrimp paste. Mince them all together.
4. In an empty bowl, add 1/2 tsp white pepper, 1 tsp chicken bouillon, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp sugar, 3 tbsp cornstarch, 1 egg, and 5 tbsp water. Mix it all together for about a minute. Add 1 tsp sesame oil and 1 tsp olive oil. Mix everything together for another 30 seconds.
5. Add the fish paste mixture to the bowl with the marinade. Mix and open up the fish paste. Continue mixing until the fish paste becomes stronger and more pliable. Once done, put it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before eating.
6. Prepare the soup base: Peel the daikon and cut it into thin slices. Place the daikon slices into the hot pot with water.
7. Prepare the dipping sauce: In a bowl, add 4 tbsp light soy sauce, 4 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp Shacha sauce, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp chicken bouillon, and 1/2 tsp chili oil. Add 4 tbsp boiled water. Mix everything together for about 30 seconds.
