Risotto Cakes Form small cakes the size of a quarter about ¾ "tall from risotto. Dredge in all-purpose flour, dip in egg wash and dredge in cornmeal. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in sauté pan. Sauté rice cakes over medium heat until brown on both sides. Set aside on baking sheet. Seared Scallops Combine dry spices (cumin, garlic powder, salt, and red pepper) in medium bowl. Press scallops into dry spices until both sides are covered with mixture. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in saucepan. Make sure pan is hot before you add scallops and sear on both sides for 2 minutes.
