Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok, sauté 5 shallots, 1 piece ginger, and 6 garlic cloves until fragrant, then add 1 sliced lotus root, stir in 1 red fermented bean curd, and pour in 800ml water to boil until shallots and garlic turn slightly golden on the surface.

The claypot is extremely hot after boiling, always use oven mitts when moving or serving to prevent burns.

Pour the boiled sauce and lotus root from the wok into the claypot. Then neatly arrange 0.5 braised duck, 0.5 white cut chicken, 300g roast pork, 10 shiitake mushrooms, 50g dried scallops, 8 dried oysters, and finally place 6 prawns in the center for decoration.
