INSTRUCTIONS
SHRIMP SAUCE
In food processor, chop scallops finely. Add butter, flour, egg, salt,
pepper and nutmeg; process for 30 seconds. With machine running, gradually
pour in cream.
Transfer to greased 4 cup mould; cover with lid or foil. Place in small
roasting pan; pour enough boiling water into pan to come halfway up side of
mould. Bake in 350°F oven for 1 hour or until firm to the touch and
toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, adding more water to pan if
necessary to maintain level.
Remove mould from water; let stand for 10 minutes. Loosen edges of mousse
with point of sharp knife; invert heated platter over top and unmould. Pour
half of the Shrimp Sauce over and garnish with lemon slices. Serve
immediately and pass remaining sauce separately. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
SHRIMP SAUCE: In saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; stir in flour and
cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in milk; bring to boil, stirring
constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or
until smooth and sauce coats back of spoon. Stir in lemon juice, and
pepper to taste. Add shrimp and heat through. Makes about 3 cups sauce.
*You can substitute 2 cans shrimp, drained.
