Oxtail Soup Recipe - The Kitchen Magpie

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to create this soulful dish:

  • 2-3 pounds of oxtails
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks of celery, chopped
  • 6 cups of beef broth
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 2 sprigs of fresh thyme (or 1 tsp dried thyme)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Optional: Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

Ready to get cookin’? Let’s make some magic!

  1. Start by seasoning the oxtails with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat, and brown the oxtails on all sides. This will lock in those delicious flavors.
  2. Once browned, remove the oxtails and set them aside. In the same pot, add the chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté until they’re nice and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until it’s fragrant. Return the oxtails to the pot, and pour in the beef broth and diced tomatoes.
  4. Add the thyme and bay leaves. Bring everything to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover it up and let it cook for about 3-4 hours, or until the oxtails are tender and the meat is falling off the bone.
  5. Once done, remove the oxtails and let them cool slightly. Strip the meat from the bones and discard the bones and bay leaves. Return the meat to the pot, stir well, and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy the warmth and flavors that pack each bowl!

So there you have it—a delightful Oxtail Soup that’s not just a meal; it’s an experience. Gather some loved ones, serve it up, and enjoy!
