Melt butter in a frying pan over medium heat, add sugar and pear wedges, and cook for 4 minutes until caramelised.

Transfer pears to a warm plate and wash the pan.

Heat half the olive oil in the pan over high heat and fry mushrooms for 4 minutes.

Add remaining oil and black pudding to the pan and cook until crispy on both sides.

Transfer mushrooms and black pudding to a warm plate and wipe the pan clean.

Melt butter in the clean pan and sear scallops for 2 minutes per side until cooked through.

Whisk orange juice, zest, olive oil, and sherry vinegar together in a bowl.

Toss the frisée lettuce with the dressing just before serving.

Stack mushrooms, black pudding, scallops, and salad on plates, garnish with pears, and finish with veal jus.
