Directions:1.Boil the Oxtail
In a large stockpot, combine oxtail and water. Boil for 5 mins, skim off foam, then reduce heat and simmer until tender (approx. 1 hour).
2.Sauté the Aromatics
In a separate saucepan, sauté onions in oil until translucent. Add a ladle of oxtail broth, peanut butter, and mix to dissolve.
3.Create the Sauce
Stir in ground toasted rice or cornstarch slurry to thicken. Add the rest of the broth and mix well.
4.Build the Kare-Kare
Return beef and sauce to one pot. Add eggplant, banana blossom, and green beans. Simmer 10–15 mins until veggies are tender.
5.Serve Loucid-Style
Plate in a deep bowl, serve with jasmine rice or garlic cauliflower rice. Spoon on GF bagoong for that signature umami hit. |

Notes: CHEF TIPS:
•For plant-based Kare-Kare, sub oxtail with tofu and mushrooms.
•Toast glutinous rice, then grind for traditional thickening. Or use arrowroot for GF simplicity.
•Let the sauce rest for 10 mins before serving to thicken naturally.
