Sea Scallops

Cauliflower Purée

Grapes and Croutons

Method

Prepare Cauliflower Purée

  1. 1

    Cook the Cauliflower

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add cauliflower florets and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Blend the Cauliflower

    In a blender, combine the cooked cauliflower, butter, heavy cream, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste. Keep warm.

Prepare Croutons

  1. 3

    Make the Croutons

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, toss the baguette cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, and salt. Spread on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Set aside.

Cook the Scallops

  1. 4

    Sear the Scallops

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the scallops with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the scallops and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 5

    Plating

    On each plate, spread a generous amount of cauliflower purée, place three scallops on top, and garnish with fresh grapes and croutons. Serve immediately.
