This dairy-free recipe relies on high-quality ingredients to create a restaurant-style finish that is surprisingly simple to achieve at home.

Ideal as a light main course or an impressive dinner party starter, the addition of toasted sliced almonds provides a delightful crunch that contrasts with the tender scallops.
