Ingredients:

• 5 large scallops, cleaned, shells reserved

• extra virgin olive oil

     Dressing

• ½ thumb-size piece ginger, finely grated

• 1lime, juiced, rind grated

• 1 tbsp. coconut sugar

• 1red chilli, diced

• 1 tbsp. roasted peanuts, chopped

• 2 tbsp. soy sauce

• 1 tbsp. fish sauce

      Salsa

• ¼ cup diced cucumber

• ¼ cup diced tomato, seeds and skin removed

• ¼ cup diced daikon

• 1 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

• 2–­3mint sprigs, leaves only, sliced

• 2–3coriander sprigs, leaves only, sliced

Instructions:

1. Combine all ingredients for dressing in a bowl and set aside.
2. To make the salsa, place all ingredients in a bowl and stir through until incorporated.
3. Pour a few drops of olive oil onto some paper towel and brush over a hot pan. Add scallops to pan. Cook for 1–2 minutes, or until caramelised.
4. Meanwhile, place a spoonful of salsa in bases of scallop shells. If you want scallops golden on both sides, turn and cook for another minute. If not, remove when almost completely cooked through.
