     Title: Kare-Kare - Filipino Ox-Tail Stew
Categories: Filipino, Beef, Stews, Nuts, Beans
     Yield: 1 batch

          String beans
          Chunky peanut butter
          Eggplant
          Ox tail (of course)
          Knorr brand Achuote

 Boil the ox tail the night before until it is quite tender,
 but the meat doesn't fall off the bone. Remove the meat and cool the
 soup in the refrigerator. The next evening remove the fat. Cook
 the meat again and add eggplant, string beans and cook some more.
 Add the peanut butter. Mix the Achuote in water and add to the pot
 (only the liquid portion, strain the seeds) Let it cook some more.

 I don't prefer the following, but it is tradition: Fry some
 bagoong. Serve with rice.

 Its even better with tripe added.  Also, add lemon to the bagoong.
