Spice Blend

2 tablespoons coriander seeds
6 star anise pods
1 black cardamom pod
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 tablespoon whole cloves
2 cinnamon sticks

Main Ingredients

2 lbs (900 g) oxtail
1 whole onion, halved
6 slices fresh ginger
Fish sauce, to taste
Coconut palm sugar (or regular sugar), to taste

Garnishes

Chopped green onions
Chopped cilantro
Thinly sliced raw onion

Instructions

Toast the Spices:
In a dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the coriander, star anise, black cardamom, fennel seeds, cloves, and cinnamon sticks until fragrant, about 2–3 minutes. Transfer to a spice bag or stainless steel tea infuser.

Char the Aromatics:
Place the halved onion and ginger slices on a baking sheet. Broil in the oven until nicely charred, about 10 minutes.

Prepare the Oxtail:
In a large pot, cover the oxtail with water and bring to a boil. Let it boil for 5–10 minutes, then drain and rinse under cold water to remove impurities.

Simmer the Broth:
In a clean large pot, add the oxtail, charred onion, ginger, and prepared spice bag. Fill with water to cover, then add fish sauce and sugar to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook gently for 8–12 hours.

Strain and Store:
Once finished, allow the broth to cool slightly. Strain the broth and refrigerate overnight. The next day, remove and discard the solidified fat from the surface.

Serve:
Reheat the broth and serve hot over cooked rice noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions, cilantro, and thinly sliced raw onion.
