30-Minute Pressure Cooker Ox Tongue
This pressure cooker method yields incredibly soft ox tongue in only 30 minutes. The meat is first prepared and pressure-cooked with a savoury marinade of soy sauce, vinegar, and aromatics. It is then fried until browned and simmered with tomato sauce to create a rich, family-friendly dish without the need for bitter wines. Optional cherry wine can be included for extra depth.
