	3 tablespoon(s)	Vegetable oil
	2	Onions, large, finely chopped
	1 tablespoon(s)	Garlic, minced
	8 cup(s)	Beef stock
	to taste	Pepper
	4 tablespoon(s)	Medium-grain white rice
	4 tablespoon(s)	Roasted peanuts, crushed
	1	Banana blossom, sliced into thin strips
	1/2 pound(s)	Green beans
	1/2 pound(s)	Eggplant, cubed

	3	Green onions, sliced
	4 cup(s)	Rice, cooked, for accompaniment

Instructions:

1.	Trim excess fat from oxtails and cut joints into segments. Season with salt on all sides.
2.	Heat oil in a large, heavy pan. Add meat and brown on all sides in batches, making sure not to overcrowd pan; transfer to plate and reserve.
3.	Return pan to heat, add onions and garlic, stirring occasionally until soft. Return meat to pan and add stock and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, lower heat, and simmer until tender, about 2 hours.
4.	Meanwhile, prepare roasted, ground rice: Toast rice grains in a dry skillet until golden-brown. Pound in a mortar and pestle or blend in a blender until ground; sift out any large pieces.
5.	Combine rice with crushed peanuts, banana blossom, green beans, and eggplant; add to stew. Continue simmering until vegetables are tender and the gravy is thick. Add fish sauce to taste (begin with 2 tablespoons).
6.	Garnish with green onions and serve with rice.
