Angel Hair Covered Fried Scallops With Curry Sauce
Ingredients
- FOR THE CURRY SAUCE:
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 4 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 cup heavy cream
- FOR THE SCALLOPS:
- 16 large sea scallops
- 2 large eggs, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
- Essence
- Salt
- 1/4 pound cooked angel hair pasta
- Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
Directions
- For the Curry Sauce: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the ginger, garlic, and curry powder, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and orange juice, and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by 1/2, about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cream and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Strain and serve with the scallops.
- For the Scallops: In a deep fryer or a deep, heavy saucepan, heat vegetable oil to 360 degrees F.
- Lightly coat the scallops with the eggwash and season the scallops with Essence and salt. Wrap each scallop with strands of cooked pasta until completely covered like a rubber band ball. Place the covered scallops in batches in the hot oil and cook just until golden brown, turning, about 2 minutes. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot, 4 scallops per person, with the curry sauce.
