Directions:

1. Put the vegetable oil in a large pot, brown the oxtails, add garlic and
onions until translucent, then add enough water to cover the ingredients.

2. Let this simmer for about a half an hour.

3. Then add the rest of the ingredients and add more water to cover.

4. Cook for about 2-3 hours on a low heat, stirring occasionally.

Notes: If you use corn, don't add too much or the soup will be too sweet.
You can, of course, alter the ingredients to your taste, it never really
turns out exactly the same twice. This recipe was my grandmother's. You can
also use beef cut into bite sized pieces AND beef bones, instead of
oxtails, but the soup won't be as rich and delicious. Don't be turned off
by the oxtails, really, they are wonderful in soup.
