I spotted these mini scallops from a seafood wholesale outlet near my house and was surprised when the proprietress told me that these were local. The source ..... from Kelantan, a northern east coast state of peninsular Malaysia. They ended up in my dish of noodles and weren't too bad, tastewise, sweet and a bit chewy.
This is another easy does it, tasty one-dish meal, simple and quick to prepare.
