Lobster Roll With Slaw Recipes

MAINE LOBSTER ROLLS

Steps:

• Cook lobster according to directions here. I prefer to steam cook the lobster. Follow the instructions on the same guide to remove all the lobster meat from the shell.
• Chop the lobster meat into big chunks. You can leave the claw meat whole if you prefer as well. Toss the lobster in the melted butter (optional). Set aside.
• Finely chop the spring onions and put it in a bowl. Add about ⅓ cup of mayonnaise, a generous pinch of celery salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
• Add the butter coated lobster into the mayonnaise mix and add lemon juice to taste.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed.
• You will need a stick blender and a tall container that just fits the stick blender. Do not use a bowl, or a large container for this recipe.
• Crack the egg into the container, followed by a pinch of salt, mustard, lemon juice and vinegar.
• After these ingredients are placed in the container, slowly pour in the oil into the container - along the wall, so that the egg remains at the bottom.
• Place the stick blender in the container, with the egg yolk underneath the stick blender blades.
• Without moving the stick blender, start blending and hold it in place for about 10 - 15 seconds. You will start to see the egg and oil at the bottom of the container turn white. Next, move the stick blender up and down to mix the rest of oil and to make a thick mayonnaise - another 15 to 30 seconds more. It should be smooth, thick and spreadable. If it's too lumpy, mix in a little water. Taste the mayonnaise and add more lemon juice or salt if needed.
• Place the mayonnaise a glass jar with a tight lid and store in the fridge, for up to 5 days.
• You can buy New England lobster roll buns, or make them at home using this recipe.
• Spread butter on both sides of the lobster roll buns. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Toast both sides - about 3 to 5 minutes per side. Set aside.
• When the toasted buns are cool enough to handle, use a serrated knife to split the buns on top.
• Line each bun with lettuce leaves. Fill each bun with 1/4 of the lobster filling. Sprinkle extra chopped spring onions or chives on top.
• Serve with lemon wedges, chips or fries. If you prefer, you can choose to serve with other side dishes and drinks as described in the post.

Steps:

• Lightly butter the insides of the buns or rolls and line with lettuce leaves. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lime juice, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper until well blended. Mix in the green onion and celery, then lightly mix in the lobster so it just gets coated without falling apart.
• Stuff the lobster filling into the buns and sprinkle parsley, basil or tarragon lightly over the filling.

Steps:

• Cut the cabbage in half, slicing through the core. Cut away and discard the core and any tough or blemished outer leaves. Finely shred enough of the cabbage to make about three cups. Reserve the remainder of the cabbage for future use.
• Coarsely chop the cabbage shreds and put them in a mixing bowl.
• In another mixing bowl blend the mayonnaise with the lemon juice, Tabasco sauce, onions, salt and pepper and stir in the lobster meat. Pour the mixture over the cabbage and toss well.

BUTTER-POACHED LOBSTER ROLLS WITH CELERY FENNEL SLAW

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Remove the claws and tails from the lobsters. Boil the tails for 1 minute and the claws for 4 minutes, then remove from the water. Immediately remove the meat from the shells and set aside.
• Add the oil to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add and sweat the onions, garlic and bay leaves until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Carefully add the vermouth and reduce until dry, about 2 minutes. Add the cream, then reduce by two-thirds, until thick. Slowly whisk in the pound of butter little by little until fully emulsified. Add the lobster tail and claw meat to the butter cream sauce and poach over low heat at 165 degrees F until cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the lobster from the pan and allow to cool just to the touch. Rough chop and set aside.
• Add the mustard seeds, vinegar, sugar and 1 tablespoon kosher salt to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, separate the celery into stalks. Using a Japanese mandoline, slice the celery into paper-thin strips. Cut the fennel bulb into quarters. Using the Japanese mandoline, slice the fennel bulb paper thin.
• In a medium bowl, toss the celery slices, fennel slices, mustard oil and 2 tablespoons pickled mustard seeds. Taste and adjust as desired with more mustard seeds. Keep cool until ready to serve.
• In a 12-inch cast-iron pan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and griddle the buns, top side-down, over medium-high heat until golden brown.
• Open the buns and fill with spoonfuls of the lobster mixture. Top with a handful of the slaw and garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.

LOBSTER ROLL WITH SLAW

Steps:

• For the lobsters: Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Squeeze in the lemon and drop the halves in, then add the white wine, garlic, bay leaves, thyme bundle, crushed red pepper and some salt. Drop the lobsters into the boiling water, cover and cook for 11 to 15 minutes. Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Remove the lobsters to the ice water to stop the cooking, then remove and let cool.
• For the lobster rolls: Remove the meat from the lobster claws, knuckles and tails and discard the shells. Coarsely chop the meat and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the celery, chives, lemon juice, celery salt and 1/2 cup mayonnaise and stir to combine well. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of mayo if you like the mix a little creamier (this is traditionally a very low mayo type deal). Taste to make sure the lobster is delicious; reserve.
• Toss the butter and garlic into a large saute pan and melt the butter. When the butter is melted, bubbly and very garlicky smelling, discard the garlic clove. Add the hot dog rolls to the pan and cook in the garlic butter on both sides until the butter is absorbed and the rolls are crispy on both sides.
• Divide the reserved lobster mixture among the 4 buttered rolls and serve immediately with the Red Cabbage Slaw.
• Place the cabbage in a large bowl, add the vinegar and season with salt. Stir to combine, then set aside for at least 1 hour. This will soften the cabbage and make it seem almost cooked but still with a great texture.
• Drain the cabbage and return to a large bowl. Add the carrots, onions, mayonnaise and mustard. Taste for seasoning; the final outcome should be a creamy and tart slaw. Serve cold or at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers.
