INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE SOUP
FOR THE PAD THAI
FOR THE SOUFFLES
1 For the Soup: Place the garlic, shallot, 1 tbsp vegetable oil, pinch of
salt and dried chilli flakes in a pestle and mortar and crush to make a
paste.
2 Heat a large pan, add the spice paste and cook for two minutes. Crush 1
stem of lemon grass and add to the pan with the stock, fish sauce, lime
juice, caster sugar and lime zest. Simmer for about five minutes to allow
flavours to develop.
3 Cut the remaining lemon grass in half lengthways to make thin pieces,
then thread some of the scallops onto each. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a
frying pan, add the skewers and cook for 1-2 minutes, turning halfway
through, or until the scallops are just cooked.
4 Place the scallop skewers in the base of a shallow dish and strain the
soup into the bowl. Garnish with chopped chilli. For the Pad Thai: Heat the
oil in a wok, add the ginger, garlic and shallots and soften for a few
minutes.
5 Increase the heat, add the scallops and cook quickly to brown, then add
the egg and beat with a fork very quickly to make thin strands of egg. Add
the noodles and stir for about 15 seconds.
6 Add the soy sauce, fish sauce, lemon juice, sesame oil, caster sugar,
ground white pepper and chopped herbs. Pile onto a large plate and serve.
For the Souffles: Preheat oven to 200c/400f/Gas
