Oxtail Stew the Lany “pressure cooker” way 

By Lanie Olivier

INGREDIENTS:
• 2 Oxtails - or 1,5kg seared in canola oil
• 2 Onions chopped in chunks and fried in canola oil till golden
• 1 Tin of chopped tomato and onion relish 
• 4 Medium carrots cut into chunks
• 4 Large potatoes cut in ¼'s 
• 1 TBS tomato puree
• 1 TBS Worcestershire sauce (the one without anchovies)
• 1 TBS Soy sauce
• 1 cup chicken stock 
• 100ml coke (alternatively 100ml red wine)
• 2 cloves
• 2 TBS flour for coating the oxtail 
• Salt and pepper to taste

EASY METHOD:
• Coat the seared oxtail in flour and place it with all the ingredients into a Pressure Cooker.
• Select the tendon or stewing setting and cook till fall off the bone soft. 
• Place in slow cooker (6 hours). Place in oven dish (4 ½ hours).
• Personally I use my Salton Pressure Cooker - the Tendon setting twice.  With the second stewing I add the potatoes and coke. 
• To achieve the best results, serve with samp or rice.
