Ox-tail soup, love it. We just roll ox-tail in flour, braise meat in a little oil, with onion and garlic, add stock, vegies of your choice, salt, pepper, water to cover. Bring to boil, then simmer till meat starts to just fall away from bone.Quote:

I don't use stock either, because that's the whole point of cooking the meat and the vegetables :)
I like to serve it with gremolata.

Sorry. Took few days to get back from work and ask wifey. But here's her version of a karelian stew (sorry, this the first time ever i've tried to translate a recipe into English ;) ):Quote:

2 onions
2-3 carrots

black pepper
cut meat, honey and cucumber to small pieces, slice carrots
Melt butter and fry onions about 5 minutes in the pan. Add honey and fry about 5 min more. Add peppers and cucumber juice.
Put them in the stew and add cover.
Fry meat, small amout at the time just enough to get beautiful color and put in the stew. Once this is done add carrots.
Now add blue cheese and fill the stew with smetana and cream.
Put in the oven: 200 C/1 hour and 150 C/30 minutes or until the meat is really tender. Add few whole Bay Laurel leaves.
Eat. With rice or cooked/smashed potatoes.
If you want to make 'original' Karelian Stew, use water instead of cream/smetana. Then it's 200 C/about 3 hrs.
I printed out this recipe and showed my wife. She agreed that it sounds great and we will try it. The only thing is that we have a freezer with a bunch of venison in it that will be substituted! :)
A couple of questions . Are the pickles the same as ...Pickled cucumber - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaQuote:
