Steps:

• Steam lobsters until slightly underdone, about 9 minutes. Let cool. Meanwhile, peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces. Boil until soft, drain and pass through a ricer. Set aside.
• Shell the cooled lobster meat, cut into large chunks and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute 1 minute. Add the leeks and carrots and saute 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 10 minutes more. Add the wine and simmer 5 minutes. Stir in the cream and the peas and simmer 5 minutes. Stir in 2 teaspoons of salt and pepper and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining butter and half-and-half and stir until melted and smooth. Stir in the remaining salt and pepper. Stir the lobster into the vegetable mixture. Spoon the lobster mixture into a large, shallow oval casserole. Spread the potatoes over the top. Bake until heated through, about 25 minutes. Garnish with chives. Serve hot.
