Kare-Kare is a peanut stew that is loved by Filipinos. The process of slow cooking the delicate oxtail meat and tripe usually takes hours and many attempts to perfect the entire recipe. The beauty of this unassuming brown stew is the complex flavors of the different kinds of vegetables and spices that complement the sweet and savory taste of peanut butter.
