Categories     appetizer

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 red bell peppers
3 ounces butter, plus additional for greasing
3 eggs, separated
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
4 slices smoked salmon
3 ounces creme fraiche
2 ounces American caviar
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • Char the peppers over a flame; place in a bowl and cover to steam until cooled. Peel and seed, reserving the juice.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepot and cool. Puree three-quarters of the bell peppers in a blender, then dice and reserve the remainder.

Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until smooth, then chill 10 minutes. Whip egg whites until they hold stiff peaks and fold them into the red pepper batter.
  • Form the smoked salmon into rosettes.
  • Spoon 1/4 cup pancake batter onto a greased pancake skillet over medium heat. Cook until bubbles start to appear, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the bottom is slightly golden, about 3 minutes more.
  • Top each pancake with 1 tablespoon of the sauce and a smoked salmon rosette. Dollop a dot of creme fraiche in the center of each rosette. Top with caviar and chives.

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings, as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 24

2 potatoes, grated
1 pear, peeled and diced
1 sprig fresh rosemary, leaves chopped
1/4 cup roughly chopped trumpet mushrooms, or other wild mushroom
1 egg
Pinch kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Pinch kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 scallops, cleaned
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 sprig thyme
1 bay leaf
6 peppercorns
1/2 cup champagne vinegar
1 cup Champagne or sparkling wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 sticks butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Potato cake: Squeeze the water out of potatoes with paper towels. In a large bowl combine add the potatoes and remaining ingredients, except the oil. Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Drop 6 large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the oil to make 6 potato cakes. Cook until the potatoes are crisp and golden, about 4 minutes on each side. Remove to paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with salt.
  • Scallops: Season the scallops with salt and pepper, to taste, and rub with curry powder. Heat the oil over high heat in a large saute pan. Add the scallops to hot pan and sear for about 2 minutes on first side and 1 minute on the other side. Scallops should be opaque in the center and slightly firm.
  • Beurre blanc: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the shallots, thyme, bay leaf, peppercorns, vinegar and Champagne and cooked until reduced to 1 tablespoon. Strain the liquid and discard the solids. Add the cream and simmer until reduced by half. Cut the butter into cubes and whisk it into the vinegar reduction in thirds. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and stir in the lemon juice.
  • To serve, put a potato cake on each plate, top with a scallop and drizzle with the warm beurre blanc sauce.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Scallops: Look for scallops that are plump and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid any scallops that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Sear the Scallops Properly: To get a nice sear on your scallops, make sure your skillet is hot before adding them. Sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Don't Overcook the Scallops: Scallops are very tender and can easily be overcooked. Keep an eye on them while they are cooking and remove them from the heat as soon as they are cooked through.
  • Serve the Scallops Immediately: Scallops are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will help to ensure that they are still juicy and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Red Pepper Scallops on Potato Pancakes is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of tender scallops, roasted red peppers, and crispy potato pancakes is sure to impress your guests. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home.
