Fried "Scallops" in Ginger Soy

I used Sophie's Kitchen vegan scallops but you can use king oyster mushroom stems.

Fried "Scallops" in Ginger Soy

Ingredients

12 "scallops" (mock scallops or mushroom stems)
1/4 tsp white pepper
2 Tbls soy sauce (I used Tamari)
2 Tbls dry sherry (I used Jim Beam - don't judge me!)
2 tsp agave syrup or sugar
3 inch ginger, grated (I used jar ginger)
2 Tbls frying oil
1 spring onion, sliced thinly


Method

In a large frying pan heat oil on a medium heat.
Add scallops and sear on one side for around 4 mins or until browned.
turn and sear on the other side for 3 mins or until brown.
In a small saucepan whisk the soy sauce, sherry, ginger and agave/sugar together on a medium-high heat until the agave/sugar is melted in.
Take scallops off the heat and place on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Arrange on pate and pour over the sauce.
Garnish with green onions.
