For the salad, the roe of the scallop not only adds a beautiful vibrant colour to the dish but the sweet subtle flavour that makes this luxurious seafood a treat. Large juicy prawns provide extra texture to pair with the sharp crispness of the fennel and soft honeydew melon. Drizzle over aromatic butter and dill, and top with a hazelnut crunch. Delish!

For the butter

50 g Butter, softened
1 Garlic clove
1 Tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
1 Tbsp Chopped dill
¼ cup Hazelnuts, roughly chopped

For the salad

16 Scallops
12 large Prawns
1 Tbsp Lime zest
1 Lime, use the juce only
1 cup Fennel, finely shredded
1 cup Honeydew melon, sliced
¼ cup Chopped dill
1 sprinkle Hazelnuts, extra to garnish
4 Lime wedges, to serve

Directions

  1. Combine the butter, garlic, ginger, dill and hazelnuts in a small bowl. Place this butter in a frying pan and heat to sizzling. Fry the garlic for 1 minute then add the scallops and prawns and fry until just cooked through. Stir through the zest and lime juice.
  2. Place the fennel, melon and dill on a platter, top with warm seafood and drizzle over the butter from the pan.
  3. Serve warm with extra hazelnuts and lime wedges.
