Directions

  1. Remove the meat from the bone and dice into 1-inch cubes. Mix the flour, chile powder, cumin and salt in a bowl. Toss the meat in the seasoned flour. Preheat a saucepot over high heat. Add olive oil, meat, bones and brown very well for 10 minutes. Drain some of the oil leaving approximately 1/4 cup left in the pan. Add 6 cloves garlic and cook until almost brown, about a minute. Stir in the onions and the peppers. Cover and steam for 5 minutes. Add the grape tomatoes, canned tomatoes and 2 cups wine. Bring to a simmer. Add the olives, capers, salt pepper and thyme. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes until meat is tender. Trim the outer leaves from the cauliflower. In a small pot just large enough to hold the vegetable add 1/4 cup olive oil and over medium heat add the cauliflower. Season with salt and add 1/2 cup wine. Cover and steam for 5 minutes. When wine is evaporated add butter, 1 tablespoon garlic and chile flakes. Turn every minute cover until tender. Boil the egg noodles in salted water. Toss with the scallions and drizzle with olive oil. Serve with stew.
