🥗Healthier: soy sauce

Soy sauce is a common substitute for umami flavor.

Prepare the oxtail by boiling it in water until tender, about 1-2 hours.

In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat and sauté garlic and onion until fragrant.

Add the pork belly and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the boiled oxtail and enough beef broth to cover the meat.

Bring to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.

Mix in the peanut butter until fully incorporated into the sauce.

Add the eggplant, banana heart, string beans, and bitter melon to the pot.

Continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 10-15 minutes.

Season with fish sauce, salt, and black pepper to taste.

In a small bowl, mix rice flour with water to create a slurry and add to the pot to thicken the sauce.

Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce reaches desired consistency.
