Default Shrimp and cauliflower recipe

Michel,
I have a recipe called "Greenlandic Shrimp Fettuccine" which while it isn't
exactly
what you want because it contains pasta, it is delicious and I expect
cauliflower could easily replace the broccoli in the recipe. Here it is:

3/4 lb. fettuccine
1 bunch broccoli, broken into bite-sized pieces
3/4 cup butter
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 onion, chopped
1/2 lbs. mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp. cornstarch
1 cup cream
1 1/4 cups parmesan cheese
2 lbs. greenlandic shrimp, cooked and shelled

Cook fettuccine and broccoli separately until just tender.
Drain and set aside.
Melt 4 TBS butter and saute garlic, onion and mushrooms until tender.
Remove from heat and set aside.
Melt remaining butter, stir in cornstarch, then cream and cheese.
Cook, stirring until hot and thickened.
Toss together with fettuccine, broccoli, onion, mushrooms, sauce and shrimp.
Heat thoroughly and serve piping hot.
Serves 6

It should work with cauliflower.
Cheers,
se
