Instructions

  1. Cut the zucchini diagonally into approx. 1/2 cm thick slices. Scrape off as many zests as possible from the orange with the zest knife. Mix the curry powder and salt and turn the scallops in it so that they are well seasoned on all sides.
  2. Melt half of the herb butter in a frying pan and fry the zucchini slices in it. When the slices are done but not too soft, add the remaining butter and the orange zest (set aside a little of it for the garnish). Season to taste with salt and pepper and cover and leave the pan on the smallest heat.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a second pan and fry the scallops on both sides for about 2 minutes.
  4. Add the basil to the vegetables, toss everything through again and then arrange the zucchini vegetables on 2 plates and place 2 scallops on each. Scatter the remaining orange zest on top.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
