Uh, pro tip for the budget constrained:

Buy some packs of instant ramen.

Get a rice cooker.

Get a rotisierre whole chicken.

Get some mixed leafy greens, or bean sprouts.

(Optional) Get some kind of ramen seasoning.

(Optional) Get some kind of seasoned oil meant for noodles.

Water into pot.

Carve off or even just tear off some of the chicken, put in pot.

(Optional) Add seasoning / seasoned oil.

Turn pot on, bring to full boil.

At full boil, add in instant ramen for about 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, turn pot off, stir a bit, add in veggies, stir some more, re-cover pot for another 5 minutes.

You now have hot pot.

…

Oh, this was supposed to be hot ‘takes’ not hot pot.

Oh well, you have hot pot.
