Slow Cooked Oxtail
When I was growing up (in the UK) my parents own pubs and my mum was the cook. In fact, I probably owe my love of home cooked hearty food to her. In the afternoons, coming home from school, I could smell her cooking from the corner of our street I’d be salivating like a dog by the time I walked through those pub doors. From pies to stews to casseroles to slow cooked one pot wonders... I was lucky enough to experience them all (learning how to cook them came many years later). Slow cooked ox tail was one my faves and still is today. Enjoy.
