Do you love oxtail? Well a traditional favourite during these Winter months is a warm and hearty oxtail stew.
Charles Finlay, the store manager at Food Lovers Market Westgate provides some valuable tips and tricks on cooking the perfect oxtail.
1. Oxtail is a bony gelatin rich meat and therefore needs to be slow cooked on a steady heat to allow for the meat to fall off the bone.
2. Oxtail can be cooked on a stove top or in a potjie.
3. A perfectly cooked oxtail will take about three hours to prepare, however it is important to check on it every 15 to 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
