Curried Scallops with spinach
1. 2 tablespoons butter
2. 1 onion, chopped
3. 1/2 teaspoon salt
4. 2 teaspoons curry powder
5. 2 teaspoons tomato paste
6. 1/2 cup canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock
7. 1 cup light cream or half-and-half
8. 2 cups shredded spinach (about 3 ounces spinach leaves)
9. 2 pounds sea scallops
Directions
1. In a large frying pan, melt the butter over moderately low heat. Add the onion and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the curry powder and cook for 1 minute.
2. Transfer the onion mixture to a blender and add the tomato paste, broth, and cream. Puree until smooth. Return the sauce to the pan.
3. Bring the curry sauce just to a simmer. Stir in the spinach and scallops. Simmer, covered, until the scallops are just done, 5 to 7 minutes.
Notes
Fish Alternatives
Shelled medium shrimp would be delicious simmered in the curry sauce. You can also use bay scallops instead of the larger sea scallops, in which case reduce the cooking time to three minutes.

Montécaos
Il vous faut :
-
4 mesures de farine
-
1 mesure de sucre
-
1 mesure d'huile
-
Cannelle en poudre
Préchauffer le four à 180°C. Dans un saladier on mélange la farine, le sucre et l'huile, ramasser sans jamais pétrir, de telle sorte à obtenir une espèce de pâte sablée. Vous devez pouvoir faire des petites boules nettes. Si cela s'effrite encore rajouter un peu d'huile. Une fois les boules obtenues, faite un petit dôme vers le haut pour obtenir la forme caractéristique des Montécaos... Saupoudrer de cannelle le sommet des gâteaux avant de mettre au four (et non à la sortie). Enfourner à mi-hauteur en baissant le feu vers 160-150°C pendant 10 minutes à 12 minutes !

Montecaos
1 measure of oil
1 measure of white sugar
4 measure of white flour
cinamon
mix quickly oil, sugar and flour (eat a lot of uncook mixture), make the form, add cinamon on the top, cook during 10-12 min at 150-160 degree celsius...wait one night (the most harder step)!
