Ox tail, beef cheek stew

 

Whenever I long stew meat in the vacuum pot, always cook a big pot, at least 3 portions of food, 2 to be kept in the freezer for later use, save time, energy and effort. 

 

Oxtail and cheeks stew, with whole head of garlic, lemon cut into halves, rosemary, star anise, ginger, old mandarin peel and licorice, served with 1 day salt honey kumquat pickles, and vegetable rice.
