1 can (18 ounce size) peeled tomatoes, crushed
Sauce
2 tablespoons fruit chutney
1/4 cup brown vinegar

directions
Cut as much excess fat from the oxtails as possible.
Heat the oil in the "potjie" (or a camp oven) and saute the meat until brown. Add onions, garlic, chilies, cloves, bay leaves, salt and pepper. Stir-fry for about 10 minutes to combine flavors and soften the onions.
Add hot water, cover and simmer very slowly in the camp oven for 2 hours. Be careful not to burn.
While the meat is cooking, prepare the vegetables.
Go to where your "potjie" is bubbling in the fire, and add the vegetables in the order listed. Cook slowly for another hour.
While cooking, mix ingredients for the sauce, then add and cook for another 30 minutes, or until meat is just falling off the bone.
For Sauce: Mix together and pour over "potjie". Serve with rice, or better still "pap (a porridge made from maize meal).
