Sometimes spaghetti gets boring, with the same bolognese, or carbonara so I decided to do something different. I wanted something fresh and light and yet luxurious. No heavy sauces for today. I took a stroll to Jaya Grocer ( of course not literally) to look for some interesting stuff. I found a pack of scallop( it cannot get more luxurious than this ) , basil, zuchini, cherry tomatoes and of lot of cheese to choose. And that's it- IDEA!
Get your pan ready, add in generous amount olive oil. The olive oil is gonna the sauce for the spaghetti so be generous. Put in some cloves of garlic and let it cook until your get the aroma. Then put in the zuchini that you have sliced thinly. Season with salt and pepper. When the zuchini is nicely cooked, add in the cherry tomatoes. And your sauce is ready. Lightly toss your spaghetti with the sauce and add in the basil. In the heat the basil will be slightly cooked. Top your spaghetti with generous amount of Parmesan.
Now, for scallops. Season with salt and pepper. Put butter in the pan and sear the scallop for about 2 min each side. Adjust your time based on the size of your scallop. Remember, never overlook scallops, or else it will turn rubbery.
There you, yet another luxurious meal from yours truly...
