elizabunny - could you please post your Oxtail Stew recipe, I've started shopping at the Butchers and noticed that they sell Oxtail so would love to give this a go, especially if I can turn the leftovers into Oxtail Soup as this is OH's favourite Soup but too expensive.
Have a good day everyone.

Hello everyone

Hi
Scotsaver -this is my receipe for Oxtail stew:-
4 Pieces of Oxtail
About 4 Med. Potatoes peeled and cubed
About Quarter Swede peeled and cubed
1 Parsnip peeled and sliced
1 large Onion peeled and sliced
About Half to threequarters Pint of Boiling Beef Stock
1 Half Tsp. Dried Rosemary
2 Bay Leaves
Salt & Pepper Seasoning
I layered everything into my slo-cooker with the Oxtail pieces evenly spaced around the dish, added the herbs and seasoning and then poured the boiling Beef stock over the top.
I cooked my Stew in the slo-cooker on high for about 6-7 hours, but I'm sure you could achieve the same result by cooking slowly in the oven (just keep an eye on the liquid)
When everything is thoroughly cooked this way you find the Oxtail meat just falls off the bones. I was able to reserve some of this meat and also some of the veggies and stock for Oxtail soup (Although I will need to add more stock to this as I used some of the liquid to make a rich gravy for the stew by adding a few granules to thicken it)
I think when I make the soup, I will bring to the boil the reserved meat, veggies and stock and then simmer everything for about 15-30 minutes and then liquidize it.
Hope this helps
