Preheat the oven to 150 °C/ 300 °F.
Season the meat with salt and pepper.
Place the oxtail in a preheated large non-stick pan greased with ghee.
Briefly brown from all sides.
Transfer the oxtail into a baking dish.
Peel and halve a large red onion, juice the orange, peel the carrot and halve the garlic head.
Place all the spices in a pot, bring to boil and cook for about 5 minutes.
When done, take from the heat and set aside.
Place all the ingredients from the pot on top of the browned oxtail.
Cook for 3-4 hours until the meat is soft (almost falls apart).
When done, remove from the oven and leave to cool down.
Discard all the spices, orange and vegetables - or eat the softened vegetables if you cannot resist :) Using a fork, separate the meat from the bones and place into a bowl.
Pour some of the sauce over it.
Fold the shredded meat on top of fresh lettuce leaves and enjoy!
