Trim off most of the fat from the oxtail.

Add the oxtail inside the pressure cooker.

Add 2 cups of water to the pressure cooker.

Crumble in the beef flavored stock cubes and add salt to season the oxtail.

Add onions to infuse flavor and aromas into the oxtail.

Mix everything together in the pressure cooker.

Set the pressure cooker to the meat program for 45 minutes and let it run twice, checking the meat after the first run.

After the second run, depressurize the pressure cooker and transfer the contents into a pot.

Let the oxtail cook in the pot for 20 minutes to continue rendering fat.

Add garlic flakes, ground turmeric, paprika, and another beef stock cube to the pot.

Mix everything together in the pot.

Add a slice of tomato paste and mix again to evenly distribute.

Add Worcestershire sauce to balance the bitterness of the tomato paste and mix well.

Cook for about 20 minutes on low medium heat until the oxtail is almost ready to fall off the bone.

Check for a layer of rendered fat on top of the sauce as an indicator that it's done.
