Recipe Summary Jamaican Oxtail With Broad Beans

This is a traditional Jamaican dish I was taught to cook by my grandmother.

Ingredients | Jamaican Rice And Black Beans

1 pound beef oxtail, cut into pieces

1 large onion, chopped

1 green onion, thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root

1 scotch bonnet chile pepper, chopped

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 sprig fresh thyme, chopped

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 ½ cups water

1 cup canned fava beans, drained

1 teaspoon whole allspice berries

1 tablespoon cornstarch

2 tablespoons water

Directions

Toss the oxtail with the onion, green onion, garlic, ginger, chile pepper, soy sauce, thyme, salt, and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the oxtail in the skillet until browned all over, about 10 minutes. Place into a pressure cooker, and pour in 1 1/2 cup water. Cook at pressure for 25 minutes, then remove from heat, and remove the lid according to manufacturer's directions.

Add the fava beans and allspice berries, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons water, and stir into the simmering oxtail. Cook and stir a few minutes until the sauce has thickened, and the beans are tender.

A slow cooker may be used instead of a pressure cooker in step 1. Simply place the browned oxtail and water into the slow cooker, and cook on Low for 10 hours, or High for 6 hours. Proceed with step 2 as stated.
