Tasmania Scallops!

Dad wanted some Scallops as they are in season so I bought him $15.00 AUD worth which is enough for a decent serve. The photo shows about 3/4 of them.
He asked me, "How do I cook them?", so me thinking the easiest way for my blind dad to handle.  I told him to make white sauce & add a bit of curry to his taste.  I stressed to him that he must only put the scallops in the white sauce for a minute and certainly no longer than a minute and a half.  Apparently his 'dish' turned out lovely.
The worst part for me was I had to clean the scallops and after scrubbing my hands I can still smell the aftermath. I will get over it :)

I teach my dad to cook and be independent.  It helps to keep him in his own home. I make him 'things' I know he can't do himself.
