Scallops in a shallot-milk sauce, divided among six shells and baked under cheese.
Method
Steps
Step 1
Simmer scallops in lightly salted water for about five minutes. Reserve 120 mL of their cooking liquid, then drain the scallops.
Step 2
Cook finely chopped shallots in butter for five minutes without browning. Stir in flour, then whisk in hot milk and the reserved scallop liquid until the sauce thickens.
Step 3
Add scallops, sauce salt, cayenne and sherry. Stir and heat about three minutes, checking scallops reach 74°C.
Step 4
Divide among six cleaned oven-safe shells or dishes, sprinkle the chosen Parmesan evenly and bake at an estimated hot 190°C for roughly eight minutes until lightly golden. Serve hot.
