Low Carb Oxtail Stew
This will sure be your regular in your house ?
Serving: 4
Ingredients
- 1.5 onions
- 4½ garlic cloves
- 45 g butter
- 5¼ tbsp tomato paste
- 1.5 kg oxtails, cut into pieces
- 1½ tbsp salt
- ¾ tbsp ground black pepper
- 1 orange
- 1 400g tin crushed tomatoes
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 3 bay leaves
- 1½ tbsp dried oregano
- 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Peel the onions and garlic, and cut them in half. Brown them slightly in butter and add in the tomato paste. Stir well, and sauté with the onions for a few minutes — this will remove some of the acidic tang from the paste. Transfer the onion mixture into a slow cooker.
- Brown the oxtail - season with salt and pepper.
- Wash and julienne the orange peel with a zester or a potato peeler. Juice the orange, and mix juice and orange peel into the oxtail along with the crushed tomatoes, vinegar, bay leaves, Italian seasoning , oregano.
- Place the meat into the sauce, and deglaze the sauté pan with 50 ml water; pour the resulting sauce over the stew.
- Cook on low in the Slow cooker on low for about 7 to 8 hours

Sounds yummy, but the instructions are very confusing .
Which part and we can ask Nissa to clarify her instructions for you 🙂
Very easy to do, and works out well. I didn’t use a Julienne as I don’t have one, so cut with a sharp knife.
I made this a couple of days ago and it’s absolutely delicious.
It was my first time cooking oxtail. I’ll definitely be doing this one again.
I ended up using it as a pie filling.
