Instructions: Chop the chillies vegetables and coriander into tiny dice (include a few top parts of coriander stem for texture).

Blend the juice of 1 lime with the honey until dissolved then min: everything together with the garlic.

When ready to serve toss the scallops lvith enough oil to lubricate them and season.

If you want to cook the scallops on a barbecue place the empty shells on the grill until theyre hot then add a scallop to each.

After about a minute turn them over and cook for a further minute they may not look browned but scallops are better undercooked and meltingly tender.

Alternatively heat a heavy frying pan until hot add a splash of oil and sear for about 40 seconds on each side then pop back in the shells to serve.

Top with a spoonful of sambal and a lime wedge before eating.

Sambal is the Malawian name for all sorts of chilli sauces Dont make this one too far in advance as it will start to look and taste sad. If you dont like scallops you could serve this with other fish or seafood and even burgers.

Serves 6 as a first course
