- 30 ml (2 tbsp.) butter
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) small scallops
- 1 leek, thinly sliced
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) fresh ginger, grated
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) lemongrass, chopped
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) Swiss From Here, grated
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 3 sheets of filo dough
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) melted butter
Saffron Sauce
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) butter

- 60 ml (1/4 cup) poultry stock
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) 15% cooking cream
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).
- In a frying pan, sauté the scallops in butter for 2 minutes. Set aside in a medium bowl. In the same pan, brown the leek. Add ginger and lemongrass. Continue cooking for 2 minutes. Pour into the bowl with the scallops. Add the Swiss From Here. Add salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Lay out a sheet of filo dough on a working surface, and brush melted butter onto the dough. Cover with another sheet, and brush with butter once again. Using a knife, cut four 10 cm x 10 cm (4 in. x 4 in.) squares. Place the filo dough squares in muffin tins. Bake for about 15 minutes until the filo dough is golden.
- Before serving, add the filling into the filo dough cups. Top with saffron sauce and serve.
