- The following is based on an Indonesian recipe I read in the local
- library. I don't remember it exactly, but this is how I made it last night
- and it was yummy.
-
- INDO-FLORIDA OXTAIL
-
-
- Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless oxtail (in sections)
- 2 medium onions
- 3 kiwi-fruit-sized Roma tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons chilipepper/garlic sauce
- Cooking oil (I used canola)
-
-
- Directions
-
- 1) Put oxtail in water. Bring to boil, turn heat down, and simmer for 20
- minutes. When done simmering, let meat drain in colander.
-
- 2) Quarter onions. Slice the tomatoes and the already-quartered onions as
- thinly as possible.
-
- 3) When meat has drained, cut into small thin pieces (smaller than
- bite-sized)
-
- 4) Cover bottom of skillet with oil, add meat and stir-fry for about 5
- minutes, until meat is nearly dark and crispy on the outside. Drain
- meat through colander again.
-
- 5) Add oil to skillet again (if necessary) to cover bottom. Add onion and
- stir-fry until soft. Add tomatoes and chilipepper/garlic sauce. Stir-fry
- about 5 more minutes. (Optional: you may wait until you add the meat again
- in step 6 to add the tomatoes, depending on how you like your tomatoes).
-
- 6) Add meat to skillet and stir-fry another 5 minutes or until you've
- reached desired mixiness or meat crispiness.
-
- 7) Serve with rice and enjoy!
-
-
- Notes
-
- I used oxtail, but I can't see why you couldn't use any beef, or
- any other meat, for that matter. The chili pepper sauce I found in the
- Oriental food section of my local supermarket. The amount listed adds
- a slight spiciness to the food; add more or less sauce to taste.
- Feel free to experiment, of course.
-
- If you use this, please let me know how you like it!
-
- Later,
- Peter!
