Scallops with Peas and Broad Bean Salad

Friday December 3, 2010

Treat yourself with this deliciously healthy scallop dish


Boil 75g of peas and 75g of broad beans, according to the instructions on the packet. Once cooked, drain in a colander and run cold water over the beans so that they keep their colour and cool them down. Drain off any excess water. Mix together with 1 sliced spring onion and 5–6 chopped mint leaves, add 1tsp of extra virgin olive oil, season with a little herb salt and arrange on a plate.

Brush a non-stick frying pan with olive oil and cook 100g of scallops over a high heat. Once the scallops have browned slightly on both sides, which should take about 45 seconds each side, depending on how big they are, remove from pan. Season and arrange on top of the salad drizzled with some balsamic syrup and serve immediately.
