🇯🇲 Jamaica recipe
Oxtail Stew
Jamaican oxtail stew is the definition of slow-food comfort. Thick, gelatinous oxtail pieces are browned and then braised for hours in a deeply seasoned brown gravy until the meat slides off the bone. Butter beans add creaminess while carrots provide sweetness. This is one of Jamaica's most treasured dishes, often reserved for Sunday dinner.
