Scallops Parmesan ... delicious low carb food !


These are elegant little appetizers 'kissed with the flavours of wine and cheese ... everything about these are right ' says Anne Aobadia. You could start a special dinner party with these ... and they are low carb too! You could even consider this dish for a Valentine's Day starter!

8 scallops
1 tablespoon butter
1 shallot, finely chopped
4 tablespoons / 60ml white wine
1 cup / 240ml heavy (double) whipping cream
1⁄6 oz. / 30g grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper

You may like to pair these with different types of dry wine, to accentuate the delicate flavours.
