Instructions
Peel and coarsely grate the celeriac and toss with the lemon juice. Add the parsley (if using), cream, mustard and a few grindings of pepper and mix well. Put on to two plates.
Warm a little butter in a small skillet/frying pan then add the scallops. Cook around 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness. Do not be tempted to turn too early and turn a few times - allow them to cook on one side and turn only once or you won't get a nice caramelization from the butter.
Remove the scallops and add to the plates. Put the chorizo slices in the pan and cook around 1 minute on each side so they crisp gently.
