Method

Preparation of Sweet Corn Purée

  1. 1

    Cook the corn

    In a saucepan, combine sweet corn kernels with heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Cook over medium heat until heated through.

  2. 2

    Blend

    Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning if necessary. Keep warm.

Preparation of Herb Oil

    Blend ingredients

    In a small blender or food processor, combine basil leaves, olive oil, garlic, and salt. Blend until smooth.

  2. 4

Cooking Scallops and Vegetables

  1. 5

    Sear the scallops

    Heat a skillet over high heat with a little olive oil. Season scallops with salt and pepper, then add to the hot skillet. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  2. 6

    Sauté vegetables

    In the same skillet, add seasonal vegetables and sauté for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.

Plating
