To make the risotto, bring the stock to simmer in a saucepan. Heat 2 tbsp. olive oil in a deep sauce pan and sauté the shallot and garlic for 5 minutes until softened. Add the rice and cook for 2 minutes until the grains are opaque. Add the white wine and reduce. Start adding stock, stirring until absorbed. Add the remaining stock a ladleful at a time. This should take 15 minutes. When the risotto is almost cooked, heat a heavy based frying pan with olive oil. Place scallops in the pan, cook for about 1 ½ minutes and turn.
