Instructions
- Place the parsnip in a pan with the water and 3/4 of the butter.
- Boil for a few minutes. Lower the heat and let simmer until most of the water has evaporated and the parsnips are soft.
- Add vinegar and spices and stir. Blend into a smooth batter with a hand blender.
- Brown the rest of the butter in a pan. Pour into a small beaker and keep hot.
- Fry the scallops in butter for no more than 30 seconds on each side, until nicely brown.
- Add a dollop of puré on a small plate or a shell. Place two scallops on top, and pour the browned butter on top.
Tip!
You could also finish these with a touch of sea salt!
Make sure the scallops are dry before frying, let sit on a paper towel to dry off.
