Method

  1. Melt 25g of butter in a deep saucepan and add the cauliflower, sweating the mixture until the cauliflower starts to soften.
  2. Once it starts to soften, add the milk and bring to the boil, then simmering for a further 10 mins.
  3. Strain off the milk, leaving to one side, and using a blender or a hand-blender, blend the cauliflower with the remaining butter, salt and lemon juice to a puree.
  4. Heat a frying pan without oil/butter and sear the cauliflower slices. Once seared, leave to one side and add the oil and butter ready to pan fry the Pembrokeshire scallops.
  5. Add the scallops to the pan and sear for approximately 1 1/2 minutes on each side (90seconds), making sure the scallops do not touch each other. Remove from the heat.
  6. Take a cleaned scallop shell and place 3 dots of the puree onto the shells. Place the individual scallops on top of each dot.
  7. Lay the seared cauliflower pieces between each scallop and garnish with samphire and a piece of lemon.
