Soak the pig's tail overnight in fresh water to cover. Then thoroughly

heavy sauce- pan with the beef, dried kidney beans (if using canned
beans don't add at this time), and the water. Cover and cook over
medium heat for about 1 hour, until the meat and beans are tender.
Add the potatoes, coconut milk, and any other peeled root vegetables
or dumplings along with the onion, scallions, thyme and hot pepper.
