Oxtail Stew with Grace Butter Beans Directions

- Dice bacon and fry for a few minutes.
- Return oxtail to pot with bacon along with carrot, onion, garlic, tomatoes and hot water.
- Cover and simmer gently for 3 hours or until oxtail is almost tender. (A pressure cooker may be used to shorten the cooking time).

- Cover and simmer for a final 20-30 minutes.
- Add the Grace Butter Beans and allow to heat through.
