    MMMMM------------------------CELERY PUREE-----------------------------
    1 c Chicken stock
    1 1/2 c Thin sliced celery
    1/2 c Chopped, peeled potato
    1/4 c Fine chopped onion
    1/2 c Flat-leaf parsley sprigs

    MMMMM--------------------------SCALLOPS-------------------------------

    - off from side of each if
    - attached
    1 tb Vegetable oil
    3 tb Black truffle butter;

    Garnish: chopped celery leaves

    MAKE CELERY PUREE: Simmer broth, celery, potato, onion,
    and 1/4 tsp salt in a small heavy saucepan, covered,
    stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender,
    about 15 minutes. Add parsley and cook, uncovered, 1
    minute. Pur|-e mixture in a blender until very smooth
    (use caution when blending hot liquids). Keep warm in
    saucepan.

    COOK SCALLOPS: Pat scallops dry and season with 1/4 tsp
    salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Heat oil in a 12" heavy
    nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it
    shimmers, then saut|- scallops until barley cooked
    through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add truffle butter and stir
    until melted, then transfer scallops with a slotted
    spoon to a bowl. Stir celery pur|-e into truffle butter
    in skillet. Spoon onto plates, then mound scallops in
    center and sprinkle with celery leaves.

    DO AHEAD: Puree (without truffle butter) can be made 1
    day ahead and chilled. Reheat in a microwave or in a
    saucepan over low heat before stirring into truffle
    butter.
