Ingredients

  1. 12 scallops, cleaned (about 2 per person)
  2. 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely julienned
  3. 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  4. 1 tablespoon lime juice
  5. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  6. 1 small red chilli, finely sliced
  7. 1 garlic clove, finely minced
  8. Salt, to taste
  9. Chinese pickled vegetables, to serve (optional)
  10. Fresh coriander or spring onion, for garnish (optional)

Method

  1. In a small bowl, mix the ginger, peanut oil, lime juice, soy sauce, chilli, garlic, and salt. Arrange the scallops in a 30cm bamboo steamer basket and spoon a small amount of the ginger dressing over each. Cover with the lid.
  2. Fill a medium wok with 5cm of water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium-high and place the steamer basket over the boiling water. Steam for approximately 5 minutes or until the scallops are opaque.
  3. Transfer the scallops to serving plates, drizzle with sesame oil, and garnish with coriander. Serve immediately.

Chef's Tip

Steamed scallops with ginger are all about delicate flavour, freshness, and balance. Gentle steaming keeps the scallops soft, tender, and naturally sweet, while ginger, garlic, chilli, and soy create a fragrant savoury dressing that enhances the seafood without overpowering it. Fresh herbs and pickled vegetables add brightness and contrast, creating a light, elegant dish full of clean Asian-inspired flavour.
