Grilled Scallops Recipe with ’Nduja Butter

75g ’nduja
see notes below
75g unsalted butter
softened
½ echalion shallot
finely chopped
2 tbsp sherry vinegar
a small handful coriander
roughly chopped
6 large scallops in half shell

Method

step 1
Put the ’nduja into a small cold frying pan and break it up with the back of a spoon over a medium heat, until its fat has rendered and is fairly smooth. Cool then put in a bowl with the softened butter and mix really well. Chill for 5 minutes to firm slightly, then tip into baking paper, form into a sausage and twist the ends to tighten. Chill until firm.
step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the shallot, vinegar and coriander with a little seasoning.
step 3
Heat the grill to high. Put the scallops in their shells onto a large baking sheet, then put a thick slice of the ’nduja butter on top of each. Grill for 5 minutes until the butter is bubbling and the scallops are lightly caramelised.
step 4
Serve with the vinegar, herb and shallot mix spooned over the top.
