A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

2-5 hrs
ingredients
6 pounds meaty oxtails
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cups red wine
4 large yellow onions, peeled and sliced
6 cloves garlic, peeled
1 bouquet garni (1 bay leaf and 1 sprig each flat-leaf parsley and thyme tied in a bundle)
1 cup beef stock
directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Season oxtails with salt and pepper and lightly dust with flour.
Heat oil in a large ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Cook oxtails, turning to brown on all sides, for 8 minutes. Remove oxtails. Skim off excess fat, and deglaze with wine over medium heat. Stir well to loosen browned bits on bottom of pan.
Add onions and garlic to pot, arrange oxtails in one layer on top, and add bouquet garni. Cover and cook in oven until meat pulls easily from the bone, about 3 hours. Transfer oxtails to a platter, top with onions and garlic. Discard bouquet garni.
For sauce, skim fat from pan juices with a large spoon. Add stock; cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Adjust seasonings, and spoon over oxtails. Serve with mashed potatoes.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
