THAI-STYLE SCALLOPS AND ASPARAGUS



Thai-Style Scallops and Asparagus image

Asian restaurants should pay more attention to dry Vouvrays. Like rieslings, which are frequently poured with Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese dishes, Vouvrays knit bright acidity into their alluring canvas of citric and floral aromas and flavors, sometimes kissed with spice or sugar. They are ready for action the minute the fragrances of ginger, coriander and lemon grass waft from the kitchen.This recipe follows the template for many Thai dishes: it starts with a curry paste that is heated and becomes the foundation for a stir-fry. The dish does require some shopping, though most of the ingredients have become mainstream. Asparagus cues the season.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS WITH ASPARAGUS PURéE



Sautéed Scallops with Asparagus Purée image

This elegant, simple recipe is perfect for special occasions and weeknight dinners alike. Briny-sweet scallops are quickly seared, then served on a velvety emerald swath of asparagus purée for springtime flare. Keep the asparagus tips intact for texture, and follow Michael Ruhlman's tricks to bring out the vegetable's bright green hue.

Provided by Michael Ruhlman

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Fine sea salt
1 pound asparagus
Ice
1 1/2 pounds scallops, preferably dry and fresh
2 tablespoons canola oil, plus more as needed, or any neutral oil, such as vegetable or grapeseed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, ½ stick
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

Steps:

  • Asparagus: Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Salt the water generously (make it as salty as seawater). Trim the woody ends from asparagus and discard; then submerge asparagus in the boiling water. Cover with lid just until the water comes back to a boil, then uncover and cook until al dente (tender but with just a little crunch), 3-4 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice water.
  • Asparagus are done when they bend without snapping. Use a spider strainer to transfer them to the ice bath; submerge and stir to immediately stop the cooking. Reserve cooking water (to thin purée). Cut asparagus tips and reserve for garnish. Cut stalks into 2-inch pieces and set aside.
  • Place asparagus stalks in the blender and cover with lid; pulse a few times. Remove the smaller cap in the lid and turn blender to medium speed. Ladle in a slow stream of cooking water (about ½ cup) to help the asparagus purée. Use caution, as the water and purée are hot! Replace the cap, then purée on high speed. When the purée is smooth, strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl to remove any fibrous strands. Salt the purée to taste and set aside.
  • Scallops: Place scallops on paper towels in an even layer and pat dry; this is an important step to get a nice sear. Pull off and discard any tough side-muscles (their fibers run against the grain of the rest of the scallop). Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then add oil. (Add more as needed to coat the bottom of the skillet.) When the oil begins to ripple, add scallops in an even layer without crowding. Let cook undisturbed, 60-90 seconds. Scallops are ready to flip when they are evenly caramelized and no longer stick to the skillet. Before flipping, sprinkle with sea salt. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the asparagus purée.
  • When scallops are golden brown on the first side, they should release easily from the skillet. Using a small offset spatula, flip each scallop to sear the second side; continue sautéing, 30-45 more seconds, depending on size. Remove scallops to a paper towel-lined plate and let rest while finishing the sauce.
  • Add half of the asparagus tips to the warmed purée. Add butter, then swirl the saucepan continuously until all the butter has melted and emulsified into the purée to make a rich sauce.
  • Immediately before serving, add the lemon juice to the asparagus sauce and stir to combine; taste and adjust seasoning. Divide the sauce among plates or large bowls, then place the scallops on the sauce. Garnish with remaining asparagus tips and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut asparagus and scallops.
  • If you don't have Shaoxing wine, you can substitute dry sherry.
  • Be careful not to overcook the scallops, as they will become tough.
  • Serve the stir-fry immediately over rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

This asparagus scallop stir-fry is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The asparagus is tender and crisp, the scallops are perfectly cooked, and the sauce is savory and delicious. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
