Kevin Woodford's Valentine's Day Recipes

听

STARTER

听

Butter glazed Scallops with minted pea pur茅e听听

Scallop ingredients

6 fresh plump scallops

Himalayan sea salt

1 Tbspn olive oil

75g unsalted butter

75g diced pancetta

Juice from half a lemon

听

Pea pur茅e ingredients

150g frozen peas

Fresh mint leaves.

50g unsalted butter.

听

Prepare the pea pur茅e in advance of the dinner by scalding the peas with boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and cool.

Blitz the peas, butter and the mint leaves in a mini food processor or by hand blender. Season with course sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and transfer into an oven proof bowl and cover with foil.

5 minutes before you're ready to serve the scallops, place the bowl of pea pur茅e into a pre heated oven at gas 5 (190'C).

To cook the scallops, heat the olive oil and butter in a non stick frying pan. Once hot then add the scallops and season with the salt. After 3 minutes turn each scallop over ( be sure to turn them in the sequence they were placed in the pan). Add the pancetta to the pan and turn them to ensure that they cook evenly.

After 1 minute turn off the heat and add the lemon juice.

Remove the pea pur茅e from the oven and place a neat portion on the plates. Position the scallops onto the pur茅e and spread the pancetta around the pur茅e. Pour a little of the juice from the pan over the scallops and serve.

Moroccan lamb tagine with prunes and apricots

This recipe makes enough for four, so any leftovers can be reheated the next day. Just like a good cook, it improves with age!

It may look complicated due to the excessive number of ingredients.

However, it's the simplest and most delicious dish imaginable. Plus, it can be made earlier than required and then reheated when you're ready to dine.

1 tbspn olive oil

75g blanched almonds

500g diced lamb knuckle

2 large onions, chopped

2 Cloves crushed garlic

1 tbspn grated fresh ginger

2 tspn ground coriander

1 tspn ground ginger

Pinch of saffron

2 tspn turmeric

Freshly ground black pepper

1 tspn ground cumin

300 mls water

1 large cinnamon stick

12 soaked prunes, drained.

8 dried apricots, soaked and drained.

Grated zest of an orange

1 tbspn honey

1 tspn ground cinnamon

Lots of freshly chopped coriander

50g stoned olives.

Heat the oil in the tagine, add the lamb, almonds, onions and cook until golden brown.

Add the garlic, fresh ginger, ground coriander, ground ginger, saffron, turmeric, black pepper, and cumin. Mix together and then add the water and cinnamon stick.

Allow to come to the boil and then reduce the heat to low and cover with the lid. Cook gently for at least an hour until the meat is really tender.

Add the prunes and apricots and cook for a further 30 minutes covered with the lid and then add the remaining ingredients.

With the lid removed increase the heat and allow the tagine liquid to reduce slightly in order to intensify the flavour.

Turn off the heat and leave the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Delicious with cous cous or baked potatoes.
