WASABI CRUSTED SCALLOPS
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.
SEARED SCALLOPS WITH PANCETTA OVER AVOCADO AND WASABI
Steps:
- Halve the 3 avocados and remove the pits. Spoon out flesh into a food processor and add wasabi, lemon juice, salt and pepper, to taste. Process until it's a smooth consistency. Cover and place in refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Heat a frying pan on medium heat. Cook pancetta until crispy and fat has rendered. Remove pancetta from pan reserving the fat and add butter and garlic. Once the butter has melted add the scallops to the pan and gently sear until lightly browned. About 1 minute per side. Spoon some avocado puree on each plate, arrange pancetta on top followed by the seared scallops. Dice your red pepper finely and garnish.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump, firm, and have a slightly sweet smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Use a sharp knife to score the scallops. This will help the scallops cook evenly and prevent them from curling up.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the scallops. This will prevent them from steaming and becoming tough.
- Cook the scallops over high heat until they are golden brown and opaque in the center. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Serve the scallops immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
