Grilled scallops with seaweed butter

I served this on the beach, cooked over a fire, after diving for wild scallops. It’s a three-ingredient dish but one of my favourites. I served it with grilled lettuce - perfect for soaking up the juices!

Ingredients

  • 4 whole scallops
  • 150 g unsalted butter
  • 60 g
  • Grilled lettuce, to serve

Instructions

Using an oyster or scallop knife, open the scallops, clean them leaving just the meat and keep the scallop roes for future uses.

Mix the butter and wakame jam well until fully emulsified to make seaweed butter.

Place about 15 g seaweed butter into each scallop shell on top of the scallop, cover with the matching top shell and place on a grill over the fire.

Cook for approximately 3 minutes, or until the butter is hot and melted and the scallop very gently cooked.
