Oxtail Ragu With Casarecce
“Oxtail ragu was one of the first recipes I created for my blog and it’s still one of the most popular. It’s rich and comforting and delicious served with pasta such as casarecce or pappardelle. You could also have it with mashed potato, Parmesan polenta or as a pot pie topped with flaky pastry. I like to accompany this meal with a simple green salad to cut through the richness from the meat sauce.”
This is the first of three comforting recipes Olivia Galletly shared with us from her first cookbook, The Hungry Cook.
