Рецепт Jamaican Oxtail Stew
Jamaican Oxtail Stew or Brown Stew Oxtail is a Popular Jamaican dish made out of slowly simmering oxtails until together with some butter beans, chillies plus herbs and spices. A dish that is influenced by different cultures like the Spanish, British and Africans as evident from the ingredients used in this dish.
Like any stew it starts with a tough cut of meat, oxtail being a popular ingredient in Jamaica is the star of this dish. This is then seasoned traditionally with a popular Latino seasoning called Goya Blue Top all-purpose seasoning which is usually made out of blended salt, garlic, oregano, and black pepper. Ginger, scotch bonnet peppers, thyme and Worcestershire sauce is also a popular addition to this dish. And for the carbs usually butter beans / lima beans are added.
It’s one hell of a good dish, in fact this is one of the best tasting stews out there, once the meat is cooked well the texture of the dish becomes magical as the high collagen content of this cut gives is a thick consistency. While I never been to Jamaica yet this makes me feel like I want to go there soon, I think their cuisine can offer many more amazing dishes that I would certainly love. The mix of the different cultures I guess the flavours are nearly the same as what Philippine cuisine can offer.
