Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • L.Nightshade on March 02, 2015

    This was dinner in a flash. Sauté some chopped red chiles and garlic, add some thinly sliced red onion. Add the scallops. Add sauce (soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar is called for, I used coconut aminos and fish sauce, and didn't add the sugar), top with basil, toss and serve. Mr. Nightshade gave it five stars, stated it's dinner party-worthy, and I tend to agree. Very tasty.

    Very quick, easy, and flavourful. The onions were just a touch salty for my taste from the fish sauce.
