I made this tonight and was excellent. Didn’t have the Asian wine so I used white wine. White pepper kind of expensive, but got some. This is a very tasty recipe.

[@HAPPYWOK]

Wonderful! I am glad you able to make some. Thanks for reporting and also thank you for watching.

[@glenmoss02]

Looks amazing, Chef. It's hard to beat fresh seared scallops.

[@HAPPYWOK]

You got that right! The aroma coming from searing, disturb my neighbors. Was asking, " WHAT"S COOKING MAN? CAN I COME OVER & HAVE SOME? " LOL.. Thanks for watching.

[@Grizzleback07]

This looks soooo good! Heck I would even cook the scallops in a garlic butter/oil mix and smoke the asparagus to toss with a soy sauce, butter, and rice vinegar sauce.

[@HAPPYWOK]

Sounds great! That gonna be tasty too. Thanks for watching.

[@metalandy]

Hey my friend. Glad you tried the dish I suggested which I made about a month or so ago. I noticed you cooked the scallops in a frying pan that resulted in no water build up. I did everything in the wok and got water build up. The birthday dinner was a success. Chicken fried rice, sweet and sour shrimp with broccoli and pork colored peppers in hoisin sauce. We'll be enjoying leftovers for the next few days.

[@HAPPYWOK]

Yes, I remembered your suggestion in this cooking a month ago. This is why I bought those large scallops ( expensive US$10 for 1 pound of 10 pcs ) Nevertheless, it turn out good. I am glad that birthday dinner was successful. Thanks for watching.

[@Grizzleback07]

There are different types of scallops which will hold more water than others. I saw this on Good Eats when he talked about certain scallops for sale in the supermarket and what to look for.

[@metalandy]

@@Grizzleback07 Maybe I'll look into it cuz I want to get into stir frying more sea foods.

[@HeliMicky]

I got caught out too with the wet packed scallops last time I bought some :-( make sure you get the dry packed scallops so much better :-) "When shopping for sea or bay scallops to use for recipes, look for “dry-packed” scallops. These have been shucked and shipped packed on ice, with no chemical additives. They tend to have a slightly pink or off-white hue and a pleasant sea smell. Avoid the very white “wet-packed” scallops that are sold in many supermarkets. These have been soaked in a solution containing phosphate, a whitening agent that keeps them fresh longer but also allows them to soak up more water, increasing their weight by almost 30 percent. They tend to release a lot of liquid when they’re cooked, causing them to steam rather than sear to a nice caramelized crust. Phosphate also gives the scallops a slightly soapy flavor."

[@metalandy]

@@HeliMicky Thanks for the tips. Ill look into it.

[@DeadbyDaylightDUO]

I’ll have to try this recipe! Looks great! Is there any way you can show us a recipe for the Chinese takeout dish called Happy Family? Thanks so much! 😃👍🏽

[@HAPPYWOK]

Happy Family? That doesn't sound like cooking. Can you elaborate? Thanks for asking. Thanks for watching.

[@DeadbyDaylightDUO]

@@HAPPYWOK It is a Chinese American dish that includes beef, chicken and seafood in a light brown sauce. Sometimes it is called Hunan Triple Crown or Triple Delight.

[@HAPPYWOK]

@@DeadbyDaylightDUO : I see, like a combination cooking with soy sauce. Let me do some researched and see if we can do a copycat. Thanks for your info.

[@sharonmccoy8735]

Hello where can I get the exact measurements, I would like to make this

[@HAPPYWOK]

See the last part of this cooking video. Thanks for asking.

[@kraftwerk974]

Wow, expensive raw materials here !!! Must be delicious 😋

[@HAPPYWOK]

They are! That is why I seldom makes cooking videos on those expensive stuffs. LOL.. Thanks for watching.

[@alanvonau278]

The following is just my opinion... 1) The scallops, star of the dish, are over-seared; 2) The asparagus and carrots could have been sliced into smaller pieces, at a bias, so as to complement rather than to compete with the scallops (better mouth feel with all the ingredients together); 3) For scallops, I would use a much lighter sauce than the dark brown one shown, perhaps a seasoned crab meat sauce thickened with a corn starch slurry.

[@HAPPYWOK]

That is good suggestion. Thanks. Also Thanks for watching.
