Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h 40 min

Bull's tail is tender bones with rather tough meat. In fried form, it is very difficult to chew it and the whole palette of taste will remain undisclosed. To make the meat in the finished dish not just delicious, but also tender, it is best to cook in a slow cooker.

Wash the bull's tail under running water, divide into portions, season with salt and pepper. Turn on the "Frying" mode on the slow cooker, heat up a small amount of vegetable oil. Fry the bull tails on each side for 10 minutes, until lightly browned.

Temporarily remove the meat, chop the shallots, garlic and fry them in the bowl of a slow cooker until a pleasant caramel shade. This will soften the sharp taste and texture of vegetables.

Add butter and flour to the fried vegetables. Stir so that there are no lumps and boil for about 3 minutes. Add tomato paste, which will add a rich color to the finished dish and set off the taste. We put the bull tails back into the bowl of the slow cooker and pour in the beef broth.

Add spices: bay leaf, rosemary, all specified spices and salt. Be sure to taste and adjust the amount of salt if necessary. Close the lid and put the slow cooker on the quenching mode for 40 minutes. During this time, the meat will become soft, tender and will literally lag behind the bone.

As soon as the slow cooker signals the end of the process, open the lid and remove excess fat from above. Add the potatoes, carrots and onions cut into large pieces. Close the lid, simmer until the vegetables are ready. The process takes 10-20 minutes, depending on the variety and size of the potato pieces.

Spread in a deep dish, sprinkle with parsley and serve hot.

Bon appetit!
