Tips:
*Actually, the oxtail is cooked in the pressure cooker for 30 minutes, and the simmering for another 30 minutes is mainly for the taste and softer, because the oxtail will not be scattered after being fried for a long time. In the final stage, you need to taste the saltiness of the soup several times. Whether to add salt or not, the soup will be slightly saltier than the usual dishes, and the meat will be almost as salty in the end. The degree of juice collection depends on your liking, and the juice will taste thick when it is thick.
