SCALLOP TIRADITO

This is my version of one of my favorite  NOBU recipes. 

Serves 2

Ingredients:

3 larger scallops

1/2 cucumber

cilantro leaves

rocoto or other chili paste (Sriracha, Harissa)

salt flakes or coarse kosher salt

2 teaspoon fresh yuzu or lime juice

1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

passion fruit sorbet (or mixed berry)

1. Cut each scallop across its depth depending on the size of the scallop into 3 or 4 slices (1/4 inch)
   
2. Slice the cucumber into very thin discs and carefully arrange the slices in the middle of the serving plate. 
3. Surround the cucumber with the scallop slices.
   
4. Place a cilantro leaf and a little dollop of chili paste with salt flakes on each scallop
5. Mix the yuzu or lime juice with the lemon juice and pour around the scallops carefully
6. Top the cucumber with the sorbet to refresh the palate

Serve with cold Sake or a dry white wine.
