Bluff oysters are our favourite shellfish, with scallops coming in close in second place. So when one of the supermarket chains offered fresh New Zealand scallops on special, away we went to buy some. And as everyone knows, two dozen of the succulent morsels equate to one dozen each, we might as well buy enough to enjoy a decent meal out of them.
Half a can of Tui beer went into the batter mix, and Robin got to finish the remainder, just enough for a taste, he said. I cooked up the scallops while Robin took a quick trip down to the fish shop to buy some chips. Now, what could be nicer that this, scallops cooked in crispy beer batter and hot chips?
With a sprinkle of salt and pepper, it was delicious. We didn’t bother with cutlery, the very best way to eat a meal like this is fingers only!
