Cheese Baked Fresh Scallop Recipe


My next door neighbour gave me some fresh scallop. Although, I have eaten scallops many times at steamboat restaurants, this is the first time I tried cooking scallops. I was scratching my head thinking of how I should cook them. Then suddenly I came out with the idea of baking it with cheese. He he he, another of my East Meet West recipe! I shared some of the cheese baked scallops with my neighbour.

Ingredients,
Fresh scallops with shell intact, 15 pcs
Curry paste or Chilli paste, 1 tablespoon
Cheese, Mozzarella, 3 tablespoons
Serai (lemongrass),
Ginger, 3 slices, cut into small strips
Olive oil, 1 tablespoon
Longbeans, 2 stalks, cut into bite sizes

Arrange scallops in baking pan. Pour the curry paste over the scallops. Put in the serai (lemongrass), ginger, long beans and olive oil. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes at 180 Deg C. Serve while still hot! Good as finger food!

Mmmm...delicious. I love scallops but have never cooked it myself. I won;t know what to do with it. I have once eaten at a restaurant here, cooked in wine sauce. It was just fabulous!
