Chef Ji's Spectacular Creations - Part 1 Sauteed Atlantic Sea Scallops with Cabbage

Welcome to the first of hopefully many of my reviews of Chef Shashi Ji's kitchen concoctions.


For my inaugural issue I have before me today, Sauteed Atlantic Sea Scallops with Cabbage.  The seasoned scallops are on a bed of light cooked cabbage with tiny dried shrimps.  There is a light vinegar taste to the cabbage and the scallops are sauteed to perfection, not to soft and not too dry; you can see the juices in the picture. The scallops themselves are perfect, the cabbage flavor is a little too strong and overpowers the dish. This would make a great appetizer to share or as a main dish perhaps with a mushroom risotto or other complementary item. 

I thoroughly enjoyed this dish and look forward to more creations from Chef Ji's kitchen!


VERDICT: 7.5/10
