Instructions
- Slice the rib tips into 1"-1.5" pieces between the bones. Turn on medium high heat and add in the chopped onion and 2 lb of rib tip pieces for browning, usually ~7-10 minutes. You do need to add oil since the rib tips are a fattier cut of meat.
- Adjust to medium heat. Add in 12 cups of water and the potatoes, since potatoes take a while to cook. Bring the soup to boil. Add in the packet of the Tamarind Soup Mix and stir to mix. Add in the snow peas, mushrooms & Hearts of Romaine. Stir.
- Add 2 tbsp of Fish Sauce, or salt to taste. If you are adventurous, add in chopped chili peppers for a little kick.
- Recipe makes 12 servings. Usually a serving is around 8 oz of soup by volume. Serve in a large bowl.
