Steamed Scallops Recipe (with glass noodles)

I love these big and juicy Fukuyama Frozen Hokkaido Scallops which I got from Fairprice. Each piece is just sweet, meaty and succulent. I don’t like the idea of over-processing scallops and I feel the best way to cook them is to keep it as simple as possible. One method is to steam them and I like adding glass noodles so they could soak up all the steaming liquid which makes it really flavoursome. Also, I made the sauce a little similar to that of the Hong Kong Style Steamed Fish that I make regularly so it would be a little salty and sweet at the same time. Goes really well with the scallops without overpowering them. Enjoy!
