for 2 hrs.

* Instant Pot -  I would cook the oxtail with the onion and garlic and wine in the instapot for the first 40 minutes then add the rest of the other ingredients for another 45 mins this way your oxtail will be tender.

RECIPE!!

Growing up in an Asian family (really doesn't matter what country... all the same where recipes are concerned) you "add this" and "cook it this long" until it "looks right".

So I'm giving the list of ingredients. Exactly the same as my Mom's. You'll have to "guesstimate" the rest! Happy cooking!

Oxtail

Soy Sauce

Garlic Salt

Worchestershire Sauce

Tomato Soup

Can of Stewed Tomatoes

- Brown oxtail

- Season with Soy Sauce, Worchestershire, Garlic Salt (liquids first, then dry seasoning so its not "washed away")

- Top with Tomato Soup & Stewed Tomatoes

- Cover oxtail with boiling water (for "fall off the bone" tenderness... cook LOW & slow for 4-5 hours!!)

- Stir and skim oil from top occasionally.

- At the remaining 2 hour mark, add vegetables (potatoes, carrots, green beans)

- Make cornstarch slurry to thicken sauce

My rice of choice? Japanese "easy cooking" brown rice!
