Oxtail

Butter Bean Mash

Atchar Oil Drizzle


This dish is a celebration of deep, comforting flavours rooted in tradition, where humble ingredients are transformed into something rich and memorable. Slow-braised oxtail, a staple in many cultures, speaks to a heritage of patience in cooking – where time unlocks tenderness and depth. Paired with a creamy butter bean mash and finished with a vibrant atchar oil drizzle, the recipe brings together classic techniques with bold, local influences. It’s a modern expression of culinary roots – honouring the past while embracing layered, contemporary flavour.

Preparation

  1. Oxtail

    1. Heat oil in a large pot. Season oxtail with salt and pepper. Brown deeply on all sides. Remove and set aside.
    2. In the same pot add onions, carrots, and celery. Cook until lightly caramelised.
    3. Add garlic, tomato paste, Robertsons Ground Cumin, Robertsons Mild & Spicy Rajah, and Robertsons Smoked Paprika.
    4. Stir until the spices coat the vegetables.
    5. Pour in prepared Knorr Professional Beef Stock and Knorr Professional Tomato Pronto. Add brown sugar, vinegar, and bay leaves. Stir in the atchar pulp for a mild fermented tang. Return the oxtail to the pot.
    6. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 3½–4 hours until meat falls from the bone. Remove oxtail pieces carefully.
    7. Strain the liquid, add Knorr Professional Jus and water, mix together and reduce for 10-15 min until thick and glossy.
  2. Butter Bean Mash

    1. Place boiling water in a pot, bring to the boil, and remove from heat. Add cold milk and Knorr Professional Mash Flakes and stir well. 
    2. Heat butter and oil in another pot.
    3. Add garlic and cook gently, without browning. Add the butter beans and warm through.
    4. Add warm, prepared Knorr Professional Vegetable Stock and purée until creamy. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon zest.
    5. Fold the made up Knorr Professional Mash Flakes into the butter bean mixture.
  3. Atchar Oil Drizzle

    1. Mix together all ingredients. 
    2. Drizzle atchar oil over before serving.
