Oxtail in Spicy Tomato Broth with Cauliflower Gnocchi

So true story when I buy oxtail I have to make sure that everyone is getting the same amount and the same size or there will be a table argument ! I grew up eating oxtail because lets be honest, back in the day it was a very inexpensive cut of meat and my Mom rocked this dish! This is my take on the recipe my mom made while I was growing up!

Oxtail in Spicy Tomato Broth with Cauliflower Gnocchi

One of my greatest childhood memories growing up with this dish!  It seriously says Home to me in so many ways.  I get very nostalgic when I make this dish.  I wish nothing more that you enjoy it as much as I do!
