1 pound tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped

2 teaspoons herbes de Provence

directions

For Provencale Sauce: Heat oil in fondue pot over medium heat. Cook onions, garlic and tomatoes for 10 minutes. Stir in tomato puree, herbes de Provence and white wine. Season to taste with salt and pepper, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.

Transfer mixture to an electric blender and puree until smooth. Transfer to a warmed serving bowl.

For Fondue: Clean fondue pot. Pour in enough court bouillon or stock to fill pan half or two-thirds full. Heat until liquid is simmering. Transfer fondue pot to table and adjust flame so liquid continues to simmer.

Cook scallops and shrimp in fondue for 2 minutes. Serve with Provencale sauce for dunking, along with brown bread cubes, sliced cucumber or avocado wedges and pasta salad for a main course.
