Instant Pot Oxtail Broth
  1. 1

    Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler.

  2. 2

    Arrange the oxtail pieces on a baking sheet and broil until well browned, 5 to 7 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Transfer the oxtail to a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as an Instant Pot). Sprinkle the green onions, garlic cloves, and ground ginger over the oxtail and add enough water to cover. Close and lock the lid. Choose high pressure following the manufacturer's instructions and set the timer for 60 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build.

  4. 4

    Release the pressure using the natural-release method per the manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Let the broth cool completely. Strain the broth into a container, removing and discarding the oxtail pieces, green onions, and garlic.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
