Definitely a 5 star recipe. I had a lb of scallops, so cut the quantities in half. Poached scallops in 2 cups chicken stock first and then used that stock for the sauce. Served with rice. For the half size recipe, used 1 tbsp curry powder and 2 tbs flour. A big hit. Will use many times I am certain.
