Method
Ingredients
1. To make the vindaloo paste, combine all the spices and the vinegar. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof pan, then add the spice mixture. Cook over a low heat for 5 minutes, continually scraping the sides of the pan so the spices don’t stick.
2. Preheat the oven to 160°C. Heat the ghee in a large saucepan. Add the onions and fry for 10 minutes, then add the garlic, ginger, chillies and bay leaves. Cook for 5 minutes.
3. Add the oxtail and fry until caramelised. Add the curry paste and curry leaves and cook for 1 minute. Add the remaining ingredients and bake in the oven, covered, for 3 hours.
4. Prepare the rice and poppadoms according to package instructions and serve with the oxtail.
Cook’s note: Make extra paste and keep in the fridge for up to three weeks. Top with a layer of oil to seal it.
