I was searching for recipes with cauliflower and shrimp. My mom never cooked cauliflower with anything but all by itself. So I grew up thinking that nothing can be mixed with cauliflower. But I got so bored with the one dish she used to make with Cauliflower that I stopped eating cauliflower for some time. But after I started to cook on my own I started searching for new dishes and I make them. Here is one of them
Cauliflower shrimp curry ( Shrimp and Cauliflower cooked in spicy coconut milk)

In the same pan place the onions and fry till they start changing color. Add ginger-garlic paste and fry for a couple pf minutes. Drain the cauliflower and fry it for 5 minutes. A add all the other ingredients except shrimp, stir to combine and simmer for 8 minutes. Add shrimp and simmer further 5 for minutes. If using peanut powder add it now and stir well to combine. Garnish with cilantro and lemon juice and serve with Tomato dal and white rice
