Cornmeal-Crusted Scallops with Corn Relish (Emeril Lagasse) Recipe
Posted by
Directions:
- Corn Relish:
- Corn Relish: In a medium skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the corn and cook, stirring until starting to caramelize, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper, the cumin, and coriander, and cook, stirring, until fragrant and the corn is caramelized, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
- In a bowl, combine the corn and the remaining ingredients. Adjust the seasoning, to taste, and let rest for 1 hour before serving.
- Scallops: Lightly season both sides of the scallops with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the water and 2 teaspoons of the Essence. In another bowl, combine the masa harina, flour and the remaining 4 teaspoons of Essence. One at a time, dip the scallops in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off, then dredge in the masa mixture to coat evenly.
- In a medium saucepan, heat enough oil to come 2 inches up the side of the pan over medium-high heat to 365 degrees F. Add the scallops in batches and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain and lightly season with Essence. Divide the corn relish among 4 plates and arrange 6 scallops on top. Garnish with the chopped herbs and serve immediately.
- Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
- Yield: about 2/3 cup
