    Title: Paper Wrapped Scallops w/Papaya Salad
    Categories: Asian, Seafood, Fruits, Chilies
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1 bn Coriander roots
    1 (5cm) piece lemongrass
    1 1/2 cl Garlic
    1 Red chile; chopped
    1 Green chile; chopped
    1 (1") piece ginger
    1/4 c Coconut cream
    10 Prawns
    5 Scallops
    1/2 tb Lime juice
    1 1/2 tb Fish sauce
    1 1/2 ts Sugar
    3 Lime leaves
    8 Shallots; chopped
    1 pk Rice paper
    1 Papaya
    4 tb Lime juice
    3 tb Fish sauce
    4 tb Soft brown sugar

    Fill a coffee grinder with the coriander roots and blitz,
    then add the lemongrass, garlic and chillies and blitz
    again. Scoop out this mixture and place in a frying pan
    with the coconut milk. You want to reduce the liquid a
    little, so move the milk around and let it bubble away for
    5 minutes. Add the lime juice, fish sauce and sugar and
    keep the pan moving.

    Cut the scallops and prawns into 1/2 inch pieces and
    remove the muscle from the scallops. Add these to the
    sauce and keep moving. Let the seafood cook for 1 minute.
    Once cooked remove the pan from the heat and transfer
    everything to a bowl. Place the bowl over another bowl
    filled with iced water. Fold 8 shallots into the sauce.

    To soften the rice paper, place the sheets into medium to
    hot water for a few minutes.

    To make up the rolls, take one piece of rice paper and
    spoon some of the filling into the middle of the paper.
    Place a piece of coriander and basil at either end of the
    paper so that when the paper is rolled up, the leaves
    stick out. Roll up the paper carefully.

    Peel and cut julienne a papaya and place in a bowl. Add to
    it the lime juice, fish sauce and brown sugar and mix to
    combine. Serve on a plate on the side of the paper rolls
    and with some coriander sprigs.
