Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oxtail

    Season the oxtail pieces with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Dice the onions, chop the celery stalks into small pieces, and rinse the baby carrots.

  3. 3

    Mince Garlic

    Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sear the Oxtail

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned oxtail pieces and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Remove the oxtail and set aside. In the same pot, add the diced onions, chopped celery, and baby carrots. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions become translucent.

  3. 6

    Add Garlic and Deglaze

    Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for an additional minute. Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze.

  4. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the seared oxtail to the pot. Add the beef broth, bay leaves, and additional salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 8

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 2-3 hours until the oxtail is tender and falling off the bone.

Serving

  1. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the bay leaves, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
