7-Eleven Singapore has launched a new ready-to-eat personal hot pot dish.

Each item comes with an individual serving of hot pot ingredients, vermicelli, and a matching soup base.

There are three flavours: Mala Chicken, Seafood Tomato, and Herbal Chicken.

The dishes are pre-cooked, and can be heated up in the in-store microwaves for two-and-a-half minutes.

They also do not have long expiry dates -- only a few days -- as they are refrigerated and not frozen.

Mala Chicken Hot Pot

Ingredients you'll find are:

  • Chicken thigh

  • Black fungus
