Aromatic, meaty, and comforting with the bursting flavor from a myriad of spices, one mouthful will melt your heart!

I am using the oxtails to make the rich and gelatinous broth as a base. It requires long and slow cooking to release its beefy juices and collagen. The coriander, pickled chillies, roasted peanuts, and lemon juice compliment perfectly the earthy flavor of the soup.
