For the celeriac remoulade
- 7 oz celeriac 200g, approx - peeled weight, 2 cups when grated (1 small-med celeriac/celery root)
- 2 tablespoon parsley optional, roughly chopped
- 3 tablespoon heavy cream double cream, or can use sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice or a little more to taste
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard or a little more to taste
- ground pepper
For rest of dish
- ½ tablespoon butter 7g, approx, for frying
- 6 scallops large
- 8 slices Spanish chorizo alternatively use smoked bacon
Peel and coarsely grate the celeriac and toss with the lemon juice. Add the parsley (if using), cream, mustard and a few grindings of pepper and mix well. Put on to two plates.
Warm a little butter in a small skillet/frying pan then add the scallops. Cook around 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness. Do not be tempted to turn too early and turn a few times - allow them to cook on one side and turn only once or you won't get a nice caramelization from the butter.
Remove the scallops and add to the plates. Put the chorizo slices in the pan and cook around 1 minute on each side so they crisp gently.
Drain and add to the plates and serve.
