Stir-fried scallops with Asian Greens

Scallop and Asian Greens Stir-fry

To make the base of the stir fry, combine soy sauce, black vinegar, caster sugar, sesame oil and garlic in a small bowl and set aside. Pat scallops dry with a paper towel and heat grapeseed oil in a hot pan until very hot. Add scallops to the pan, in batches if necessary, and sear for 30 seconds on one side, season with salt, then turn over and sear the other side for 30 seconds so they are nicely caramelised. Remove from the pan and rest on kitchen paper.

Heat grapeseed oil in a hot wok, then working quickly, add choy sum, snow peas and ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the shaoxing cooking wine cook for 10 seconds. Add the scallops to the wok, add soy sauce mixture and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Serve immediately.
