did my first braised oxtail today.
saw a few online recipe, decided to just mix & experiment a bit myself.
result???
pretty good actually, very tasty, tender, savoury..& veg were wonderful…
hers different, had quite a bit more tomatoes, overall taste experience still better than mine.
so i just bought 3 large oxtail pieces from cold storage, 800g for S$20, promo price like S$26.90/kg.
washed with salt, then coat with 1/2 tsp salt, black pepper, 1 tbsp corn flour.
fried in olive oil to brown/colour, then removed from pan.
added olive oil to pan & fried chopped shallots, sliced ginger, chilli padi. then onions, garlic, then added carrot, celery, & spices. then added wine, water, mirin, sugar
then added back oxtail & placed in caserole in 180degC over 2hrs
can boil to reduce if too much liquid, & add cornflour to thicken if required (i didn’t)
oxtail was very tasty. so was the veg & gravy.
however i think my slow braised spanish beef ribs still better. thinking of doing this dish for a dinner on 29.11.2016, but maybe i will decide on the beef ribs instead. not sure yet.
