Delicious in Dungeon #1: Huge Scorpion and Walking Mushroom Hot Pot

Dungeon food. Ah, dungeon food.



It's not hard to find low level critters like this in a dungeon. A giant scorpion, a slime, and a walking mushroom. The mushrooms a little small, but itll have to do.


Once they've been processed they look a bit more appetising! The scorpion sure looks like some fake prawns made from surimi, the mushrooms body and feet are like oyster and shiitake mushrooms, and the slime is dried into konjac noodles, a special type of clear low-calorie noodle.


First we fry up the meat and mush, to get it a bit brown I guess. Meanwhile we can forage for a few more things to make the food more flavourful!


A chopped up invertato (potato) and a couple types of moss (leaves and heart of bok choi)


Im gonna try and sear these cabbagey hearts a bit more, especially since I had stored them in my freezer.


And of course, lets boost the broth with some appropriate seasoning! I have some instant dashi powder, some white miso paste and some cornish seaweed salt.


In that goes with some hot water and noodles.


And now I can laboriously rearrange it to look like the hot pot...

It's a pleasant vegetabley flavour. A tiny bit fishy, a tiny bit mushroomy, but mostly cabbage-y. The mixture of textures is nice. A healthy meal in a pinch, but probably very low calorie.
