Ingredients List
12 scallops, cleaned (about 2 per person)
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely julienned
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 small red chilli, finely sliced
1 garlic clove, finely minced
Salt, to taste
Chinese pickled vegetables, to serve (optional)
Fresh coriander or spring onion, for garnish (optional)
Steps
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.
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.
Transfer the scallops to serving plates, drizzle with sesame oil, and garnish with coriander. Serve immediately.
