As much as I love scallops, I hardly ever cook them, somehow I prefer when somebody does it for me, like The Chief last Wednesday, when we ate at Dinings. My scallops tonight came from Dinings though; Cathal said that buying them in Waitrose is lame and that I should get some from work, at a decent price, the quality however will be out of this world in comparison to the supermarket ones. So I did. Goemon gave me some shells as well to present the dish in a posh way.

I’m busy redecorating the bedroom today, so dinner had to be relatively quick;  I marinated the scallops in a mixture of chilli garlic paste, sesame  oil and soy sauce, nothing measured, as usual. 🙂  I pan fried them and served on the bed of green salad with some fried rice on the side. Very pleased with the result. Chocolate fondants are in the oven as I write, green tea ice cream ready. Then it’s back to painting for me and washing up for Florek. 🙂
