Ken's Scallop Soup
Grab some fresh scallops and dry them. Take a heavy saucepan or a dutch oven and saute the them briefly in a spash of olive oil and a small piece of butter.
Add some minced fresh garlic.
Add some fresh chopped herbs, a splash of white wine, a splash of chicken stock and a can of clams.
Add half a teaspoon of Thai curry sauce. It comes in red and white. Use whichever you prefer. This will add a very gentle "kick". Of course, if you love spicy then just add more.
Add some fresh lemon juice.
Add some boiled potatoes and a splash of heavy cream. Add some slices of fresh mango.
Boil gently for 15 minutes.
Serve in bowls.
Tech Notes:
As with all cooking, quality ingredients make a huge difference. Buy the best you can afford.
Also works well with shrimp.
If you want to experiment try it with cod cut into small cubes.
