Irie Foods Oxtail Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Put the oxtails, onions, salt, sugar, garlic powder, ketchup, soy sauce, liquid browning, allspice, tomatoes and scallions in a 10- to 12-quart pot. Fill with enough water to cover everything. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium or medium-low and cook until tender, 2 hours. Add the beans and stir. Thicken with cornstarch if using.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cover lima beans with water, cover with a towel and soak overnight.
• In a large pot, add oxtails, onions, scallions, garlic, thyme, red pepper, paprika, bay leaf, hot sauce, and gravy master and marinate at least 4 hours or overnight in the refrigerator, stirring occasionally.
• Add enough water to just cover the oxtails and bring the mixture to a boil. Lower to a simmer, cover and cook 2 hours. Every 30 minutes for 2 hours add 2 cups of water or broth, alternating, as necessary, to keep oxtails covered with liquid.
• At 2 hours, add the beans, tomato paste, and 2 more cups of beef broth and water, if needed. Bring to a boil then simmer uncovered 2 hours, skimming fat off top and stirring occasionally. In the last 1/2 hour of cook time, season with 2 tablespoons salt. Serve with rice.
• Rinse rice 3 times to remove starch. Put rice in a medium saucepan. Fill saucepan with enough water to cover the rice by 1/2-inch or measure by placing your thumb tip on the rice and filling the pot with water until the water reaches the middle of your thumbnail. Bring rice to a simmer, cover and cook until tender and liquid is evaporated, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rice stand another 5 minutes, covered.
• Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Steps:

• Place oxtails in a heavy soup kettle or dutch oven. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and liquor. Cover and marinate for one hour.
• Cook covered over medium heat for 30 minutes to draw out juices.
• Uncover. Bring to a boil and turn often till meat is browned and liquid is evaporated. Add garlic, bay leaves, oregano, and one onion, coarsely chopped, along with 1/4 cup beef broth. Cook and stir to deglaze pan.
• Add remaining beef broth. Cover and simmer gently until meat is tender when piereced (about 3 hours).
• Remove pan from heat. Strain broth into a large saucepan or bowl. Discard onion and herbs; set meat aside. When meat is cool, remove it from bones, cut in bite-sized pieces, and return to broth. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
• Skim off and discard fat. Bring broth to a boil. Add celery, carrot, and 2 medium onions, coarsely chopped. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until veggies are tender (about 20 minutes).

Steps:

• Mix oxtail, water, broth, onion, garlic, onion salt, salt, and pepper together in a large Dutch oven. Bring to a boil. Cover, turn heat down to a simmer, and cook until meat falls from the bone, about 2 1/2 hours.
• Stir potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, bell pepper, and green onions into the pot. Cover and let simmer until vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Season the flour with salt and pepper, then toss the oxtail in it until evenly coated. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole. Working in batches, brown the meat really well on all sides. Remove from the pan, then add the veg and garlic and fry for 3-4 mins until starting to colour. Stir in the tomato purée and herbs. Tip the meat back into the pan, pour over the wine, then crumble in the stock cube. Season, cover the pan and braise in the oven for 3 hrs until the meat is meltingly tender. Can be cooked up to 2 days ahead. If you make it ahead, chill in the fridge and lift any fat off the top before reheating.
• To make the dumplings, tip the flour and basil (reserving a few leaves for a garnish) into a food processor with a generous pinch of salt, then blitz until the basil is finely chopped. Add the butter and blitz until it's the texture of breadcrumbs, then gradually add the egg whites until everything comes together. On a floured surface, roll the dumplings into small, walnut-size balls, then cover with a tea towel until ready to cook.
• To serve, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Simmer dumplings for 15 mins, then remove with a slotted spoon. While the dumplings are cooking, gently reheat the meat in the sauce. Serve a few chunks of meat in a soup bowl with a few dumplings, drizzled with olive oil and scattered with a few basil leaves.

Steps:

• Clean the oxtail pieces thoroughly by rinsing them under cold water and trimming away the excess fat.
• In a bowl, stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, soy sauce, adobo seasoning, and seasoned salt to make a paste. Rub the paste into the oxtails. Place in a covered container and let marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
• Heat a Dutch oven or large pot with a lid over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Remove the oxtail pieces from the marinade and brown them on all sides. Carefully add enough water to the Dutch oven to just cover the meat, add the thyme, cover, and lower the heat to medium-low. Add the onion, carrot, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally to prevent the meat from sticking to the bottom, until the oxtails are tender and the meat begins to separate from the bone, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Serve over the rice.
