Pasta with Scallops in Curry Cream Sauce

Yields1 Serving

 2 ½ cloves of garlic, minced
 ¼ cup butter
 ¼ cup olive oil
 1 tbsp finely chopped parsley
 ½ bay leaf
 ½ tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp. dry)
 ¼ tsp dried basi (or 1 tsp fresh finely chopped basil)
 ⅛ tsp dried oregano
 ½ lb bay scallops
 2 fl oz dry sherry
 ½ tsp curry powder
 ½ pt heavy whipping cream
 salt and pepper to taste
 ½ lb fettucine pasta
1

Saute the garlic in the butter-oil mixture over low heat and add the herbs. Add the scallops to the butter-herb mixture and saute until opaque.  Remove the scallops from the heat and set them aside.

2

Add the sherry to the butter-oil mixture and let it cook down about 5 minutes. (This is a good time to put the pasta in the boiling water.)  Next, add the curry and the whipping cream.  Cook an additional 5 minutes, returning the scallops to the pan for the last minute to heat them through. Add salt and pepper to taste.  

3

Drain the pasta thoroughly, pour it into the pan with the scallops and sauce, thoroughly coating the pasta.  Serve the pasta with grated cheese and crushed red pepper.
