When beef is fork tender, add the corn, potato, and peppercorns. Let stand for 5 minutes. Add cabbage and Chinese cabbage. Season with fish sauce according to taste.

Cooking Tip:

Boiling the Bulalo slowly and gently over low heat brings out the flavor of the meat, and keeps the meat very tender.
But but but....if you don't have much time and you want to expedite the cooking process, use "pressure cooker" to soften the meat of the beef shank or oxtail. When tender, add the necessary ingredients.
