Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup minced shallot
3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 cup plum wine or dry sherry
2 cups lobster stock, fish stock, or chicken stock
20 ounces unsweetened coconut milk
2 tablespoons sweet chile sauce*
3 cups mango puree, or 5 very ripe mangos peeled and pureed
2 limes, juiced
Kosher salt
1/4 cup whole mustard seeds
3 tablespoons coriander seeds
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
3 cups wasabi peas*
Wasabi powder
Kosher salt
12 large sea scallops
Vegetable oil, for searing

Steps:

  • To make the coulis: Heat the canola oil over medium heat in a medium saucepan. Add the shallots, ginger, and garlic and cook, stirring frequently until the shallots are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the sesame oil, plum wine, lobster stock, coconut milk, sweet chili sauce, and simmer until the flavors blend and the mixture reduces by about one-quarter, about 8 minutes. Add the mango puree and season with lime juice and salt. Simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes then strain and set aside in a warm place.
  • To make the crust: In a spice grinder or mortar, grind the mustard and coriander seeds with the peppercorns and wasabi peas. Adjust the seasoning with wasabi powder and salt.
  • Shortly before serving roll the scallops in the crust. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook until they begin to crisp then flip. Cook the scallops until they are crisp on all sides. Spoon the scallops onto warm plates. Spoon coulis around the scallops and serve.

These scallops were a bit overcooked for my taste, but the flavor was still good.

The scallops were delicious, but the crust was a bit too spicy for me. Next time, I'll use less wasabi.

These scallops were a hit! The wasabi crust added a nice kick, and the scallops were cooked perfectly. I served them over a bed of jasmine rice, and it was a delicious meal.
