Ingredients
- 5 scallops on the half-shell
- 5 tsp XO sauce
- 1 knob of ginger, julienned
- 50 g butter
- 3 spring onions, finely sliced and placed into iced water
- Coriander leaves, to garnish
Dressing
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup water
- 1 tbsp sugar
Instructions
- Top each scallop with a teaspoon of XO sauce and some julienned ginger.
- Place the scallops in the steamer basket and steam over high heat for 2-3 minutes, or until just cooked. Remove the scallops and arrange on your serving plate.
- Combine soy sauce, water and sugar in a bowl, stirring to dissolve the sugar completely. Spoon the dressing over the scallops and top with the sliced and drained spring onion.
- Place the butter in a small fry pan over high heat and melt until it begins to foam and go brown.
- Spoon the browned butter over the scallions, then garnish with coriander leaves and serve.
