  • Finely chop (brunoise) the carrot, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, spring onion, and zucchini.
  • We slowly emulsify the olive oil, mint, and lemon juice with the vegetables (that’s why it’s called limoneta), season to taste, and set aside.
  • We prepare a mango puree and add it to the limoneta.
  • In a hot pan, we add a little extra virgin olive oil, season the clean scallops with a little salt, without removing the reddish appendage of the scallop.
  • When the oil is hot, we place the scallops in the pan to caramelize, cooking them very briefly on each side, practically a maximum of half a minute per side.
  • We plate by placing the scallops and surrounding them with the limoneta.
  • We serve.
