Oxtail soup is a classic dish that has been enjoyed for centuries. It is a hearty and flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. The main ingredient in oxtail soup is, of course, oxtails. Oxtails are the bony tails of cattle, and they are a great source of collagen, which gives the soup its rich and thick texture. Other common ingredients in oxtail soup include vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions, as well as herbs and spices such as thyme, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Oxtail soup can be made in a variety of ways, but the most common method is to braise the oxtails in a flavorful broth until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. The soup is then served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or bread.

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Soup, Starter, Supper

Time 4h25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½kg oxtail , cut into about 4 pieces
small handful thyme sprigs
2 bay leaves
small bunch fresh parsley , leaves and stalks separated
½ tsp black peppercorns , roughly crushed
small piece star anise
½ bottle red wine
4 tbsp sunflower oil
1 onion , roughly chopped
2 carrots , roughly chopped
2 sticks celery , roughly chopped
2 garlic cloves , bashed once and peeled
1 tbsp plain flour
1 tbsp ketchup
2l beef stock

Steps:

  • Up to two days ahead, tip the oxtail into a bowl and season with a little salt. Tie the thyme sprigs, bay leaves and parsley stalks together and put in the bowl with the peppercorns and star anise. Pour over the wine, then cover and chill for up to 48 hrs.
  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Lift the oxtail out of the marinade, reserving the mixture. Heat a drizzle of the oil in a large casserole pan and, in batches if needed, brown the oxtail. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Add another drizzle of oil and cook the carrots, onion, celery and garlic until just starting to brown. Stir in the flour and ketchup and cook until you have a thick paste. Pour over the reserved marinade and simmer for 1 min. Nestle the oxtail back in the pan and pour over as much stock as you can, chilling any extra to use later. Bring everything to a gentle boil, scoop off any froth then cover and place in the oven for 3 hrs 30 mins, stirring once or twice until the meat is very tender.
  • Remove the soup from the oven and leave to cool slightly, then lift the oxtail from the broth and shred the meat using two forks. Discard the bones and transfer the meat to a bowl. Sieve the liquid into another bowl, then cover and chill overnight.
  • Remove and discard any fat that has solidified on top of the soup. Tip the broth into a saucepan and simmer until silky, adding more stock if the broth is too thick. Stir through the shredded meat until warmed through. Season to taste, then ladle into bowls and scatter over some parsley leaves, if you like.

Tips:

  • Choose the right oxtails: Look for oxtails that are meaty and have a good amount of fat. Avoid oxtails that are too bony or have too much gristle.
  • Brown the oxtails before simmering: Browning the oxtails adds flavor and color to the soup. You can brown the oxtails in a Dutch oven or a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables in the soup add flavor, texture, and nutrients. You can use any type of vegetables you like, but some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and potatoes.
  • Simmer the soup for a long time: The longer you simmer the soup, the more flavorful it will be. Simmer the soup for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours.
  • Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is finished simmering, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a splash of red wine or Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Oxtail soup is a hearty, flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a relatively inexpensive soup to make, and it is a great way to use up leftover oxtails. If you are looking for a delicious and satisfying soup, oxtail soup is a great option.
