Roasted Romanesco Cauliflower with Shrimp in Mustard Cream Sauce



All in all, this was a pretty simple dish. I mostly based it off of this recipe and just added in some shrimp to poach at the last minute. But I made a couple of mistakes. At the time I didn't know that "double cream" was heavy cream reduced by half. I used just regular heavy cream and it resulted in a pretty milky consistency. I also forgot the lemon ... it really needed a little acid but I was too lazy to get up and add it in at the end. The leeks were great with the cream though... I've almost never cooked them before so it was nice to find something new to work with in the future. Next time I will put in 3x as many

Here is a picture (not my own) of romanesco cauliflower before it was cooked. Very strange. When I saw it I had to buy it.
