Summer seafood doesn't have to be complicated, with these simple scallops from Lucy Tweed.

200g unsalted butter, room temperature
2 tbs tom yum paste
2 tsp furikake, Japanese rice seasoning, plus extra to scatter
20 scallops in the shell, cleaned
Lime cheeks, to serve

Method

1.

Place the butter, tom yum paste and furikake in a small bowl, season to taste and stir to combine. Set aside at room temperature until ready to use. You can refrigerate leftover butter mixture in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
2.

Heat a lightly greased barbecue to high heat. Place a 1 tsp of butter mixture on each scallop. Barbecue scallop in the shell for 3-4 minutes (in batches if necessary) until scallops are cooked and butter has melted. Serve on a platter with lime cheeks and scatter over extra furikake to serve.
