Oxtail

The only way to cook oxtail – long and slow. The meat, fat and tendons need a long time to cook and soften, resulting in a rich and velvety beef stew. Slow cookers and pressure cookers are ideal for cooking oxtail. Alternatively, you can braise oxtail in a casserole dish in a warm oven overnight for best results. The meat is cooked properly when is its soft, jelly like and will fall off the bones easily.

pan or griddle on a medium heat. Cut the sausages between the links so they're all separate. Make sure you're only cooking as many sausages as you have room for in the pan

Add the sausages to the pan or the griddle and cook, turning every minute or two, for about 12 minutes, or until nice and brown on all sides

Sausages

You can also cook sausages on the barbecue
Get the coals on the barbecue nice and hot, without too much flame and with plenty of glowing embers (for further advice see the Setting up a barbecue, Barbecue cooking guide
and Barbecue safety guide fact sheets). Rake the coals into a big pile on one side and a smaller pile on the other -this is to make a hot side and a cool side of the barbecue. Cut the sausages between the links so they're all separate. Put the sausages on the hot side, making sure they're not touching each other, and cook for a few minutes, turning every minute or two, until light brown on all sides. If any flames flair up, move the sausages out of the way. When golden all over, use tongs to move the sausages to the cooler side of the barbecue so they can cook through without burning. Before serving, check the sausages are piping hot all the way through and that no pink remain
