Ingredients for 4 servings

12 beautiful scallops from diving (if possible)
12 small Breton abalones just slightly tenderized (mallet)
the leaves from a bunch of river watercress*
12 cl of liquid cream (30%)
olive oil, salted butter 1/2
1 teaspoon of wakame powder
a few lemon pearls
salt and freshly ground pepper.

Step-by-step directions

1 In a saucepan, pour your cream, salt and pepper, then at boiling point add these watercress leaves, let them melt for 2 minutes then add your teaspoon of wakame which will give it its "iodized" flavor and blend this cream, turn off your heat and cover.

2 In a pan heat a good drizzle of olive oil then mark your scallops 1 minute on each side, salt, turn off heat and cover.

3 In another pan melt a nice knob of salted butter 1/2 when it becomes foamy add your abalones for just 2 minutes then turn off the heat and cover.
Plating.
Gently reheat your 3 preparations then on beautiful hot plates distribute your watercress cream and alternate your abalones and scallops.
Ps: Keep the watercress stems to make a good soup.
And like a good chef is also one who constantly seeks out artisans who produce good products.
So I present to you one of these rare and top products that are these small abalones fed on seaweed in a marine park at Aber Wrac'h in North Finistère.
