    Categories: Seafood, Pasta, Vegetables, Cheese, Dairy
    Yield: 5 Servings

    1/2 lb (225 g) small to medium­size
    - pasta; any kind you like
    2 lb (900 g) head of cauliflower;
    - in bite­sized florets
    200 g (7 oz) sharp white Cheddar;
    - shredded
    80 g (3 oz) Egyptian Roumy cheese
    - grated *
    2 1/2 tb Neutral­flavored oil
    1 lg Onion; fine diced
    2 lg Cloves garlic; crushed
    1 tb Minced fresh rosemary
    +=OR=+
    1 ts Dried rosemary leaves
    3 1/2 tb All­purpose flour
    3 c (710 ml) milk; room temp
    1 1/2 ts Worcestershire sauce
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    6 oz (170 g) can tuna in water;
    - drained
    1/2 c Chopped fresh parsley
    Butter; to grease casserole

    Cook the pasta to al dente according to the package
    directions; set aside.

    Bring a pot of salted water up to a rolling boil. Add the
    cauliflower and cook until fork­tender, about 5 minutes;
    drain and set aside.

    Toss together the white Cheddar and Egyptian Roumy cheeses
    in a bowl; measure out 3/4 cup and reserve it for topping.

    Add the oil to a medium­large pot over medium­high heat.
    Add the onion and cook until softened, but not browned,
    about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn the heat down
    to medium and add the garlic and rosemary; cook 1 minute
    more, stirring constantly.

    Whisk in the flour and cook 1 minute, then gradually whisk
    in the milk; stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and
    black pepper. Bring to gentle boil, stirring constantly,
    and then remove from heat.

    Whisk in the cheese (except the reserved 3/4 cup for
    topping) until smooth. Stir in the pasta, cauliflower,
    tuna, and parsley. Taste and add additional salt and black
    pepper as desired.

    Preheat the broiler and butter a 9 by 13­inch baking dish.
    Pour the pasta mixture into the dish and sprinkle the
    reserved 3/4 cup of cheese on top.

    Broil until the cheese melts and serve warm.

    * Substitute for Egyptian Roumy Cheese: If you can't find
    Roumy, Pecorino Romano is a great sub.

    FREEZING: This casserole freezes and re­heats well! I like
    to thaw it overnight, and then re­heat it in a 350F oven
    (covered with foil) until warm throughout (about 20
    minutes).
