Time 2h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced (green part removed)
3 carrots, sliced
3 pounds oxtail, cut in pieces by butcher
Flour for dredging
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup canned Italian tomatoes
3 strips orange peel
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
6 stalks celery, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat the olive oil in a large casserole. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft. Add the carrots and brown gently. Remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
  • Wipe the oxtail pieces dry with paper towels. Dredge lightly with the flour and brown in the oil a few at a time, on all sides. Pour off excess fat.
  • Return the onions to the pan, along with the white wine. Scrape up the cooking juices and add the tomatoes, orange peel, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer on top of the stove, cover and place in the oven. Bake for 1 1/2 hours.
  • Add the celery and continue cooking for 30 minutes or until tender.

This recipe was a disaster. The oxtails were overcooked and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The oxtails were a bit tough, but the sauce was delicious. I think I might try cooking them for a little longer next time.

This is the best oxtail recipe I've ever tried. The meat was so tender and the sauce was amazing. I served it with mashed potatoes and it was a perfect meal.

The oxtails were cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I especially liked the addition of red wine. It gave the dish a nice depth of flavor.

This oxtail recipe is a winner! The meat was fall-apart tender and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a hit with my family. I'll definitely be making this again.
