Nonfat sour cream does not "break" when used in sauces. PANTRY NOTE: Sea scallops are 1+1/2 to 2 inches; trim (remove the hard muscle) and cut in half crosswise. 1. Trim the root end and green tops from the leeks; reserve the green part of 1 leek. Cut the white parts in half lengthwise and wash and dry thoroughly. Cut the white parts into fine julienne and set aside. Thoroughly wash and dry the green leaves. Coarsely chop and set aside. 2. Warm the butter and 1 teaspoon of the oil in a medium non-stick saute pan over medium heat. When bubbling, add the julienned leeks and saute for 3 minutes, or until just soft. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and keep warm. 3. Warm 2 teaspoons of the remaining oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute for 2 minutes, or until just slightly browned. Add the leek greens and saute for 2 minutes. Strain in the water or fish stock, vermouth, julienned ginger, parsley, and thyme. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced by half. 4. Strain through a fine sieve into a clean saucepan. Place the pan over medium heat and whisk in the sour cream until it is completely incorporated. Continue to cook, whisking constantly for 3 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced slightly. Add the minced ginger and season with the salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and keep warm. 5. Lightly brush a large non-stick saute pan with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Place over high heat until hot but not smoking. Pat the scallops very dry and season one side with salt and pepper. Carefully place, seasoned side down, in the hot pan. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the scallops are opaque and just brown around the edges. Season the tops of the scallops with the salt and pepper. Turn the scallops and immediately turn off the heat. Whisk any scallop juice that has formed in the pan into the sauce. 6. Place 4 small mounds of julienned leeks in the center of each of four warm shallow bowls. Spoon the sauce carefully over the leeks. Carefully place the scallops on the leeks.
