Hungarian Braised Oxtails Recipes

BRAISED OXTAIL

Steps:

• Toss the ingredients together in a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
• Take oxtails out of marinade and reserve onion mixture. In a heavy-bottom braiser over medium-high heat, brown both sides of oxtail in batches in olive oil, drain excess oil leaving just enough to saute onion mixture and thyme. After the onions and thyme are sauteed return oxtails to braiser and add enough water to cover 1/4 of the oxtails. Allow the liquid to come to a simmer. Put cloves and allspice into a sachet or tie in a cheesecloth, and submerge in liquid. Season with salt, cover, and put into a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Then add tomatoes, red and Scotch Bonnet peppers. Stir well and return pot to the oven for half an hour or until oxtails are tender. Check to see if additional water is needed during braising process. Seasoning with more salt is recommended when finished.

SOUTHERN SMOTHERED OXTAILS

Steps:

• Season the oxtails with 2 tsp kosher salt, and 1 tsp black pepper.
• Drizzle the worcestershire sauce all over the oxtails, then toss the oxtails to make sure that they are coated.
• Next, sprinkle 1/4 cup of flour all over the oxtails, and make sure that the oxtails are coated with the flour.
• Next pour the vegetable oil into a large pan, and place the pan over medium heat.
• Once the oil is nice and hot, add the oxtails in, and brown them.
• Once the oxtails are nice and brown remove them from the pan, and put them in the slow cooker.
• Return back to the pan with the hot oil.
• If they are burnt pieces in the pan, pour out the oil, strain, clean the pan, then pour the strained oil back into the pan.
• Start adding the remaining flour into the pan, but only a little bit at a time.
• Whisk continuously.
• Once the flour is brown, and resembles " chunky peanut butter", slowly pour in the beef broth or water.
• Whisk while you pour!
• Make sure everything is lump free, then turn the heat from medium to high.
• Once the gravy reaches a full boil, reduce the heat to medium, and add in the sliced onions, and garlic.
• Stir the gravy, and do a taste test.
• Add as much salt & pepper that you think you may need.
• Turn the heat off, and pour the gravy into the slow cooker covering the oxtails.
• Make sure that the oxtails are nicely covered with gravy, then set the slow cooker on high.
• Let cook for 8 hours.
• Once done serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or whatever you'd like.
• Enjoy!

ROMAN BRAISED OXTAIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Set a roasting pan over medium heat. Peel and dice the carrot, onion, and half the celery (including leaves). Add oil to the roasting pan, followed by the vegetables and the pancetta. Cook, stirring, until vegetables are soft and pancetta begins to crisp up, 15 minutes.
• Season oxtail with salt and pepper on both sides. Nestle into the roasting pan alongside the vegetables in an even layer to brown. Brown 5 minutes per side, then continue cooking another 5 minutes.
• Remove oxtails to a platter. Add tomato paste to the roasting pan, and stir to deglaze, 1-2 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, add wine, and stir, making sure to scrape up all of the brown bits from the bottom, 1-2 minutes. Add tomato purée, cinnamon, and cocoa powder. Place oxtails back in the pan in a single layer. Braise in the oven, uncovered, 1½ hours. (Oxtails will be braised for a total of 2 hours or more.)
• After 1½ hours, remove oxtails from oven. Slice remaining celery stalks (including leaves) into 3-inch-by-¼-inch strips. Add celery and marjoram. Turn oxtails over. Place back in the oven to braise for 30 minutes more.
• Oxtails are done when the meat is fork tender. To serve, place oxtails on a large platter with the sauce and the celery. Serve immediately.

BRAISED OXTAILS IN RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Simmer the red wine in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced by half. Meanwhile, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Dredge the oxtail in the seasoned flour, and shake off excess; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a roasting pan over medium-high heat. Brown the oxtail on all sides, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the oxtails from the pan and set aside. Turn the heat to medium-low and melt another 1 tablespoon of butter in the pan. Stir in the shallots, garlic, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook and stir until the vegetables have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the thyme, bay leaf, parsley, beef broth, and reduced red wine. Place the browned oxtail on top of the vegetables in a single layer, then bring to a boil.
• Cover with a tight fitting lid or aluminum foil, then bake in preheated oven until the oxtail is very tender and nearly falling off the bone, 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
• Once the oxtail is tender, remove the meat to a serving dish, cover, and keep warm. Strain the remaining braising liquid through a mesh strainer into a saucepan. Simmer over medium-high heat until the sauce has reduced to 2 cups. Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and pour over the oxtail to serve.

BRAISED OXTAILS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Heat the oven to 275 F. In a nonreactive 5-quart Dutch oven , heat the olive oil over medium heat until very hot, but not smoking. Brown the oxtails in batches, for 5 minutes per batch. Using a slotted spoon, transfer oxtails to a bowl once they've browned.
• Add the onions and garlic to the pan and cook until tender, or about 7 minutes.
• Stir in the carrots and the tomatoes with their juice.
• Add the broth, ginger, salt, ground red pepper, and allspice. Bring to a boil.
• Stir in the browned oxtails.
• Cover the pot and place it in the preheated oven. Bake until the meat is tender, about 2 hours.
• With a slotted spoon, transfer oxtails to a warm platter. Skim and discard fat from pot liquid. Pour juice over meat and serve. Enjoy!

INSTANT POT EASY BRAISED OXTAIL

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in the Instant Pot over Sauté mode set to high (medium-high heat in a stovetop PC) until the oil starts to shimmer. While the pot heats, sprinkle the oxtail with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Add the oxtails to the pot in a single layer (they will just barely fit in a 6-quart Instant Pot - think jigsaw puzzle) and sear until well browned on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip the oxtails and immediately move on to the next step.
• Pour the broth into the pot, then sprinkle the oxtails with the dried thyme. Drizzle the Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce over everything.
• Lock the lid on the pressure cooker. Cook at high pressure for 45 minutes ("Manual" or "Pressure Cook" mode in an Instant Pot), or for 40 minutes in a stovetop PC. Let the pressure come down naturally, about 30 more minutes. (If you're in a hurry, you can quick release any remaining pressure after 20 minutes.) Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to avoid the hot steam.
• Remove the oxtails from the pot with tongs or a slotted spoon. Be gentle - the oxtails will be fall-apart tender. Pour the cooking liquid into a 1-quart fat strainer, and let it settle to separate the fat. Pour a little of the de-fatted liquid on the oxtails and pass the rest at the table to use as a sauce. Enjoy!
