    There was a thread recently over on the crockpot cooking tribe regarding oxtail soup, including one recipe. Here's the link...

        Penny, I make mine like beef stew- coating in flour and searing the outside in a lil oil, then adding six cups of stock and veggies, bring up to a boil and reduce to rolling simmer for four hours. My daughter loves it, but her stepdad says it is the only thing I make he is not into! Aaaah cultural differences! Oh and my mom would add star anise.
        Sounds good! I might just be going to the butcher today :)

    Am wondering if you're still looking.

    I make oxtail soup with lotus roots. Can't tell you the exact proportions I use, but it's something like this:

    1 oxtail, cut into 2" pieces and washed
    3 lotus roots, peeled and sliced into 2 mm slices
    Fish sauce, to tase
    Salt, to taste
    Steamed rice

    Boil the oxtail in a big pot of water. Then reduce and simmer the pot for about 3 or 31/2 hours until tender, skimming the surface of scum every 15 minutes or so,. Add the sliced lotus roots, fish sauce and salt. Simmer for another 1/2 hour to 45 minutes or until when the meat falls off gently pulled off the bone. Serve in a bowl with some steamed rice. Add extra fish sauce to the individual bowls, if desired.

    It's rather plain, but it's a hit at home here.

    Cheers,
