(Calories per 100 g / total calories)

- 240 g (8 oz.) large Scallops (0.70 / 168.00)

- 120 g (4 oz.) cooked Cuttlefish or raw salmon (0.72 / 86.40)

- 20 g (2/3 oz.) cuttlefish ink (0.71 / 14.20)

- 60 g (2 oz.) European Pumpkin or North American pumpkin (0.18 / 10.80)

- 60 g (2 oz.) Swiss Chard, (0.36 / 21.60)

- 40 g (8 tsp.) extra virgin olive oil (8.99 / 359.60)

Method

Finely chop the pumpkin and chard; cook separately in boiling water for 10 minutes with a small pinch of salt.
Slice the scallops into rounds 2 mm (1/16") thick; place them between 2 sheets of parchment and flatten them out slightly - proceed gently so as not to break the fibers.
Chop the cuttlefish finely, as for tartar.
Layer a slice of scallop, some cuttlefish tartar and another slice of scallop to form a stuffed "pavé"; cut into a rectangle for a more symmetrical presentation.
Sauté for 1 minute on each side over medium heat, just long enough for the scallop to become slightly opaque.
With a brush, draw 3 streaks on the plate in cuttlefish ink.
Place the pavé at the end of the center streak (see photo).
In a bowl, combine the pumpkin and chard; place a dollop of the vegetable mixture on the center of the pavé.
Drizzle with olive oil.
