Ingredients
50g Extra Special Cranberry Sauce with Port
15g salted butter
10ml red wine vinegar
12 Slices of Extra Special Smoked Pancetta
12 Extra Special shell-on King Scallops (or Fish Counter King Scallops)
1 tbsp olive oil
32 Outer Brussels sprout leaves
Method
1Combine cranberry sauce, butter and red wine vinegar and bring to the boil. Leave to cool.
2If using shell-on King Scallops, remove the shell and roe. Roll the pancetta between sheets of baking parchment, and then wrap a slice around the outer edge of each scallop so it just overlaps. Cut off any excess.
3Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan. Fry the scallops, pancetta side down, turning until the pancetta is crisp. Finish cooking them top side until the flesh turns golden. Drain on kitchen paper before serving.
4Separate the sprouts into individual leaves. Grill raw sprout leaves in a hot pan until wilted and charred. Season.
5Drizzle the dressing on plates. Add 3 scallops to each plate. Scatter the chargrilled sprouts over the top and serve.
