Briefly wash the scallops and pat dry. Crack the egg into a small bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix with the cream. Mix the freshly grated Parmesan cheese with the breadcrumbs in a bowl. First dip the scallops in the egg mixture, then immediately dip them in the breadcrumb mixture and turn them over. Let the scallops sit in the coating for a few minutes so it adheres. Meanwhile, heat the clarified butter in a non-stick pan and fry the scallops for about 4 minutes on each side over a moderate heat. The coating should be golden brown and the scallops should be cooked through. I serve the scallops on dressed lamb’s lettuce and garnish them with a lemon wedge.
