SCALLOPS WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Lay 1 or 2 paper towels over a baking pan or plate. Place scallops on top and with additional paper towels, lightly pat dry the top and sides of the scallops.
• In a stainless steel saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat, about 1 to 2 minutes. The oil may pool to one side of the pan. Gently add scallops one at a time. Dip the flat side of each scallop into the oil and move across the pan providing space between the scallops. Cook on one side for 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs or a spatula, lift one side of the scallop to check if the bottom has browned. If not, cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Gently flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Once ready, remove scallops onto a plate; set aside.
• Using the same oil in the saucepan, mix in wine, broth and salt. Set aside and cover to keep warm.
• In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add mushrooms and shallot. Cover and cook until mushrooms have released their juice; stir occasionally, about 5 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking mushrooms for another 4 minutes. If using white mushrooms, cook until browned, about 4 minutes.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and once melted, mix in flour and thyme. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally until no dry flour remains and thyme should be fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Mix in reserved wine-broth mixture; bring to a simmer and cook until sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and return sauce to a simmer; cook until thickened, about 2 to 4 minutes longer. Sauce should coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice, scallops and season with salt and pepper to taste.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH MOREL CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Season the scallops on both sides with the salt and white pepper. Set a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, place the scallops in the pan and saute for 2 minutes on the first side. Add the butter, placing the cubes in different parts of the pan. Cook the scallops for 1 minute longer, then turn and cook on the second side for 1 minute. Add the lemon juice and 2 teaspoons of the parsley and cook for 1 minute longer.
• Serve the scallops by dividing the sauce between 4warmed, shallow bowls and place 3 scallops in the center of each bowl. Garnish with the remaining parsley.

Remove from the water; rinse the morels under cool water, dice into 1/4-inch rings, set aside and reserve. Strain the remaining soaking water through cheesecloth and reserve separately.
• In a 1-quart saucepan, add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted, add the reserved sliced morels, the shallots, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the white wine and balsamic vinegar and reduce until nearly dry, about 3 minutes. Add the reserved mushroom broth and cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 5 minutes. Add the heavy cream and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Swirl the remaining butter into the sauce and adjust the seasoning. Set aside on a low heat until ready to use. (Do not allow sauce to boil or it will separate.)

Flip and cook until warm in the middle, about 1 minute longer. Transfer the scallops to a paper towel-lined plate until ready to serve.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS WITH MUSHROOMS & SPINACH SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan. Once sizzling, add the mushrooms and fry for just a min or two before adding the spinach. Cook on a high heat for about 1 min, allowing the leaves to wilt and soften. Drain the leaves and mushrooms in a sieve or small colander set over a bowl, pressing them gently in the sieve to release the juices (the juices will provide the base for the sauce, so don't discard them). Keep warm to one side.
• Heat the oil in a separate clean frying pan. When very hot, add the scallops. Sauté for a couple of mins without disturbing them at all, then add a knob of butter to the pan. Turn the scallops, season with salt and pepper, then baste with the sizzling butter. Continue to cook for a further couple of mins until the scallops are ready.
• While sautéing the scallops, return the saved spinach juices to the pan the spinach and mushrooms were cooked in, then whisk in the remaining knob of butter to create the sauce. Season with salt and pepper and a grating of nutmeg.
• Now finish in style: Arrange spinach and mushrooms on plates or in bowls, sit the scallops on top, then spoon the nutmeg spinach sauce around.

Take off the heat and mash the potatoes with the butter, nutmeg, salt and pepper, then beat over a low heat until fluffy. Take the potatoes off the heat and beat in the egg yolks to thicken.

• Discard the white muscle from each scallop and cut any large scallops horizontally in half. Heat the fish stock and wine in a pan, add the scallops, cover and poach 1-2 minutes until the scallops just whiten (remember that they will cook further in the sauce).
