Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 4 scallops (cleaned and roes removed)
  • 100g savoy cabbage finely sliced blanched and refreshed
  • 20g chorizo finely sliced and cut into strips
  • 10g unsalted butter
  • Olive oil for cooking

  • 1 spring onion sliced
  • 1 handful of mint leaves
  • 1 red chilli deseeded and chopped

Method

  1. To make the salsa, place the peas, spring onions, mint, chilli and olive oil into a food processor and blitz for a few seconds season and set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a heavy bottomed pan and add the chorizo. Cook until the oils and flavours begin to release, then add the cabbage and cook for a further 5-10 minutes season to taste.
  3. Meanwhile season the scallops and place into a hot oiled frying pan and briefly cook on both sides, taking care not to over cook them. Set aside.
