01:13:00
Mmmmm, how vibrant is this?! If you follow me on snapchat sushiturtlelife, you'll have watched me cooking with Salsa music and sipping red wine! I just really wanted to treat myself and I fancied something fresh. I saw this amazing recipe on the Great British Chefs website and it just looked so elegant and dainty that I had to recreate it. Luckily we've got a great indoor Market in the centre of Cardiff and it's so convenient. I popped in and picked up 4 plump scallops. Such an easy recipe and taste so. freaking. good.
I've since bought a strainer because I'd love those peas to be a little more refined. Call me a perfectionist! I think the radish gives a great crisp crunch to the dish since the scallops melt like butter in your mouth. Ah!
