Honestly, one of my favourite things that I cook. This with a bottle of red wine, by the fire and a big scoop of Chantilly cream...unbeatable.
Ox Tail broth
Makes enough for six people
1 large oxtail cut into its natural segments through the vertebrae
1 carrot roughly chopped
1 onion roughly chopped
2 sticks celery roughly chopped
1 star anise
Fresh thyme
2 shallots, peeled and cut into rings
200g yellow foot chanterelles
200ml double cream
A little chopped thyme
water, salt and pepper
pre heat the oven to 160c
using a heavy based pan, seal of the oxtail pieces in oil until golden browns. Take your time and add as much deep-rooted colour as possible.
Remove the oxtail, add the vegetables, anise and thyme, brown these also.
Add back the oxtail, JUST cover with water and place a paper lid (cartouche) on top.
Put the pan into the oven for three hours. Remove and allow to cool.
Place the pan in the fridge and re visit the broth the following day.
Remove the meat from the bones, carful not to take any gristle and fat and reserve.
Simmer the remaining stock, pass it through a sieve and reduce it in volume over a high heat until a third has evaporated and the flavour intensified.
Now make the thyme Chantilly; simply season the cream with salt and paper, add the thyme and whisk until light setting has been achieved.
for the shooms;
In a separate pan sweat the mushrooms and shallots, season well and add this to the pan of oxtail broth and meat.
Sever the whole broth and finish with the lightly whipped cream
Very happy cooking
