Sear the oxtail in a pan until browned and golden, then let it rest on a plate.

In the same pan, add salt and the next set of ingredients: red onion, dania stems, ginger, garlic, and dried thyme.

Cook the mixture until fragrant, creating a strong foundation for the dish.

Add fresh tomatoes and tomato paste to form the base for the sauce.

Incorporate brown sugar to add sweetness and depth of flavor.

Add spices: garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, curry, coriander powder, and bay leaves.

Cook until the tomato base thickens and the aroma fills the kitchen.

Return the seared oxtail to the pan, add a quarter cup of hot water at a time as needed, and mix.

Add fresh chili and let the mixture simmer for a couple of hours until the oxtail is tender.

If using whole chili, remove it after an hour to control the heat level.
