Ingredients

Pea Soup

Method

  • If using fresh scallops, start by opening and cleaning the shells. For frozen scallops, place them in a bowl, let them thaw in the refrigerator, and drain on paper towels.
  • Pat the scallops dry, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a frying pan and sear the scallops over medium heat in rapeseed oil for about 2 minutes on each side. Place them on a plate.
  • Cut the asparagus into 6 equal pieces and sauté them in the pan for 3-4 minutes without rinsing beforehand.

Pea Soup

  • Finely chop chives.
  • Bring whole milk and butter to a boil, add the peas, and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes.
  • Add chives and blend the soup until smooth with an immersion blender or in a regular blender.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the pea soup in warmed bowls, then add the scallops and asparagus. Drizzle a little olive oil over the soup if desired.
