Oxtail again

December 10 th and today's recipe is A casserole of oxtail and prunes
The chapter is headed " Consider the prune "
I remember prunes and custard served at school when we would all count the stones to find out what kind of man we would marry !!! Never liked them then but was made to eat them as we were not allowed to waste food then. 
So this evenings tea already cooked as Mr Slater says a slow cooked dish ".....is better for a night in the fridge". 
The result is a very rich casserole with lots of intense flavour. I can be a bit squeamish about eating things like oxtail but just forgot about where the meat had actually come from and really enjoyed this. Ideal for a cold winter's day.
