18 June - scallops with peas, broad beans and asparagus

Right now, we're in that brief but wonderful window where asparagus, broad beans and fresh peas all in season at the same time. They make such a fantastic combination that I couldn't resist cooking a big pile up altogether, draining them and tipping them back into the pan with a good knob of butter and some chopped mint, just to mix. I served them with some pan-fried scallops, slices of crispy pancetta and a dollop of plain risotto on the side. Hard to beat!
