Title: scallops with leek
Post by: phatassphairy on September 05, 2011, 09:11:01 am
you will find this recipe on page 140 of the "my way of cooking"except i used prawns ....oh yeah baby!!! in my best Austin powers voice..... the sauce to this is addictive i am thinking this would be lovely over a piece of fish  or over some roast pumpkin

3 shallots
20 g butter
400g leek cut into 3mm slices
250g dry white wine
20g water
1 spn of salt (or fish paste)
pinch of pepper
12 scallops ( i used 24 green prawns that i peeled)
100g cream
2 tsp of maise ( i used arrowroot cause that is what i have in the pantry)

place shallots into mixing bowl, chop for 5 secs/speed 5
scrape down
add butter and saute 2mins/veroma/speed1
while sauteing place leeks into veroma receptacle
add white wine water salt and pepper into mixing bowl
place Veroma into position and cook on 14 mins/veroma/speed 1
while cooking place scallops(or prawns) onto veroma tray set aside
when 14 mins is finished insert veroma tray cover and cook for 7min/veroma/speed1
set veroma aside add cream and starch cook 5ins/100c/speed3
then blend 30sec/speed8
place leeks onto serving plate to form a bed top with scallops/prawns and pour over sauce
serve immediately

I regard the original MWOC Scallops with Leeks recipe as the most successful dish I have served from the Thermomix.  Wonderful.  All the guests loved it.

I posted about this last month here:

This was so delicious - made it as entree tonight with the 5 dinner guests giving 5/5. I should have taken a pic before all entree plates were totally bare!!!!!  :)  :)
