Homemade Peppered Cow Leg (Bokoto)

My husband and I tried this last night after finding cow leg at a market in Chinatown. I used a pressure cooker for about 45 minutes to get the meat tender, but I think I reduced the stock a bit too much before adding the green bell peppers because it got a little dry at the end. Still really flavorful though, especially the ginger-garlic base! Quick question, how many minutes do you usually pressure cook the meat for?

grabbed the cow foot from a halal butcher in Easton on Friday. my family loved the chewiness of the leg, but next time i will add 3 scotch bonnets instead of 2 because we like serious heat like we do back home in Gambia. throwing the sliced tomato and bell pepper in for just the last 5 minutes kept them nice and crunchy against the soft meat.

cooked this over the weekend because my husband wanted something spicy for after the braai. took almost 3 hours to get the cow leg completely soft since i dont have a pressure cooker, but boiling it down until that stock reduced into a thick gelatinous coating with the chopped scotch bonnets was 100% worth it. very lekker recipe.

Got good halal cow foot from my local butcher in Saltley and it came out so rich! I was worried the 1 tbsp of pepper soup spice wouldn't be enough for 1.2kg of meat, but after reducing the stock right down before adding the scotch bonnets and sliced tomatoes, the heat was perfect. Tastes just like home sha o.
