Ingredients

• 3.3lbs or 1.5kg oxtail
• 2 cans of chopped tomatoes
• 2 large carrots, roughly chopped
• 1 leek, roughly chopped
• 4 celery sticks, roughly chopped
• 1 bouquet garni sachet
• 3 bay leaves
• salt
• pepper
• olive oil

Directions

1. Put some oil in a pot/pan over medium to high heat and brown the vegetables.

2. After a few minutes, add the oxtail. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the oxtail over so all the sides are brown. Do this for 4-5 minutes, it releases all the flavors.

3. Transfer meat and vegetables to your slow cooker. Add the tomatoes, the bouquet garni, and the bay leaves. Add some extra salt – the tomatoes need it, being quite acidic.

4. Leave to cook in the slow cooker for 8 hours or more on the low setting.

5. Once cooked, skim excess fat from the surface as oxtail can be fatty.

6. Enjoy with cauliflower rice or konjac pasta as a low carb meal or with sweet potatoes!
