Method:
1. Heat the oil and saute the sliced onion, carrot and well rinsed seaweed; cook, turning occasionally, for 5-10 minutes.
2. Add the water and cauliflower florets and simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Add the macaroni and cook for 10-15 minutes more, or until the macaroni and vegetables are just tender.
