Meat Stock Soup

Ingredients

• 2 pounds Beef shin, cut into 1-inch cubes (Provides a rich stock)
• 8 cups Water (For making the stock)
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped (Adds flavor to the stock)
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated (Adds warmth and spice)
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced (Adds pungent flavor)
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder (Adds color and earthy flavor)
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder (Adds warm, earthy flavor)
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder (Adds citrusy, floral flavor)
• 1 teaspoon Salt (To taste)
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (Freshly ground, to taste)
• 2 cups Mixed vegetables (carrots, potatoes, celery), diced (Optional, for added nutrition and flavor)

Instructions

1. 1Cut the beef shin into 1-inch cubes and wash thoroughly under cold running water.
2. 2In a large pot, combine the beef shin, water, onion, ginger, garlic, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is very tender.
3. 3If desired, add the diced vegetables to the pot during the last 30 minutes of simmering. This will allow them to cook until tender.
4. 4Remove the beef from the pot and shred it. Return the shredded beef to the soup. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve hot.
