Preparation

Step 1
Put the scallops on a flat surface and chop finely with a knife. Do not use a food processor or electric blender. You do not want to make a smooth paste. There should be about two cups or slightly less, closely packed.
Step 2
Put the chopped scallops in a mixing bowl and add the onions, coriander, lemon juice, jalapeno pepper, tomato, oil, salt and pepper. Blend well. Serve in small portions with buttered toast triangles.
