LOBSTER RECIPES - FOR COOKED LOBSTER OR CRAYFISH



Lobster Recipes - for cooked lobster or crayfish image

Here are 6 easy recipes for cooked lobster or crayfish that make the most of this luxury seafood! When you buy pre-cooked lobster, it's best to keep it simple to preserve the flavour in the flesh (flavour is better with freshly cooked raw lobster - but much more expensive to buy!).TOP TIP: Keep it simple and don't re-cook lobster that's already cooked (risk of drying out, loss of flavour). Treat it like buckets of cooked whole prawns you peel yourself!Rundown of each recipe in recipe notes below.

Whole cooked lobster(s) or crayfish
Marie Rose aka Thousand Island
Tartare Sauce
Seafood Cocktail Sauce ((most intense flavoured, use sparingly))
RecipeTin Family Favourite Seafood Sauce ((my pick!))
Prawn Cocktail recipe - sub prawns with lobster
50g / 3 tbsp salted butter (, cut into 1.5cm / 1/2" cubes (or unsalted + 1/4 tsp salt))
1 garlic clove (, very finely minced)
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp parsley (, finely chopped)
1 tbsp+ lemon juice
Lemon wedges & 1/2 cup parsley leaves (, for serving)
Crusty bread (, for mopping plate!)
Lemon Butter Sauce recipe
1/4 tsp salt
Lemon wedges & 1/2 cup parsley leaves (, for serving)
Crusty bread (, for mopping plate!)
1 cup (lightly packed) parsley (, chopped (OK to include some stems, up to 1/4 cup)
1 tbsp whole capers
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove (, chopped)
2 tsp red or white wine vinegar
1 anchove (large, or 2 small) (, chopped)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/8 tsp black pepper
160g / 1 cup cooked lobster meat (, cut into 1cm/ 2/5" cubes (1 x 600g/1.2lb whole lobster))
2 1/2 tbsp kewpie mayonnaise (or Hellman's) ((Note 3))
2 1/2 tbsp celery, finely chopped ((~ 1 stalk))
1 1/2 tbsp green onions (, very finely sliced)
2 tsp chives (, finely chopped)
2 tsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
Pinch black pepper
butter (, softened, for buttering buns)
3 mini brioche buns or rolls ((or other very soft roll best for this))
Plain potato chips (, for serving (classic accompaniement))
Garnishes (optional): Pinch paprika, chopped chives, lemon wedges

Steps:

  • If lobster was frozen, thaw lobster overnight in a bowl or tray (with sides to catch liquid). Drain well before use.
  • Cut between head and tail: Insert a small knife at a 45 degree angle into the gap between the tail and head. Cut along the top and sides through to the middle - no need to do underneath.
  • Separate head from tail: Twist the tail to separate it from the head. It will pull out meat from the head as well.
  • Clean: Scrape or trim off any yellow of black residue on the end that came out of the head.
  • Cut underside: Cut down both sides of the soft shell on the underside of the tail. Then peel it back like a can of sardines to reveal the lobster flesh.
  • Remove flesh: Carefully remove the flesh - it should come off the shell cleanly.
  • Remove poop vein - if you see a poop vein (black "string" down the back of the lobster tail meat), then carefully pull it out. If you stretch the meat out straight, you should be able to pull it out in one go. Otherwise, pick it out when you slice it. (Sometimes poop vein is thick, sometimes barely there!)
  • Residual meat in head: There will be some residual meat in the head that can be used. The yellow "mustard" (called tomalley) has very intense lobstar flavour but is an acquired taste... I do not eat it!
  • How to serve: Lobster tail meat can be served whole, sliced into thick or thin pieces or diced, depending on use. I do not recommend shredded as it loses juiciness.
  • Make Sauce per the Dipping Sauces recipe.
  • Serve alongside lobster for dipping. Either cut the lobster into bite size pieces, or serve whole for people to cut themselves. Plate it up individually or on a share platter.
  • Make the Prawn Cocktail recipe but substitute prawn for lobster cut into small bite size pieces.
  • Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Once foamy, add garlic and cook until light golden. Remove from stove, add lemon juice and parsley.
  • Serving: Pour into serving bowl and serve alongside lobster. Garnish with parsley leaves and lemon wedges.
  • Eating: Let people either dip in bite size pieces or drizzle over lobster, plated up indivudually or on a share style plate. Mop plate clean with crusty bread!
  • Make the sauce per the Lemon Browned Butter Sauce recipe.
  • Slice the lobster into bite size pieces. Pile onto plate or arrange on indivudual plates. Sprinkle with salt (necessary as browned butter is unsalted).
  • Serving: Drizzle with some browned butter, then serve more on the side. Garnish with parsley leaves and lemon wedges.
  • Eating: To eat, dip or drizzle lobster with more browned butter. Mop plate clean with crusty bread!
  • Blitz ingredients in a Nutribullet or small food processor until it becomes a paste. It should be smooth but a bit of courseness for texture ie don't blend into a smoothie.
  • Slice lobster into bite size pieces. Arrange on indvidual plates or share plate. Drizzle little dollops of salsa verde over lobster - don't go overboard, the flavour is quite strong!
  • Garnish with lemon wedges & parlsey leaves, serve.
  • Place lobster in a bowl. Add mayonnaise, lemon, chives, celery, green onions, salt and pepper. Gently toss to coat.
  • Split then generously butter buns or rolls. Stuff generously! Makes 2 mini brioche buns or 3 round rolls.

  • First up, prepare the curry butter. In a medium bowl, combine the butter, garlic, ginger, lime juice and zest, spices, cilantro, and chives, and a pinch of sea salt, and mix well. It’ll take a few minutes, depending on how softened the butter is. The compound butter should be completely combined, silky smooth, and easily workable. (compound butter freezes perfectly, and I always have several flavours in the freezer readily available for my next recipe. Feel free to double the butter recipe and store for your next lobster grilling day).
  • Lobster time. Working in batches - one or two lobsters at a time - place a lobster on a cutting board and angle the tip of a chef’s knife right below where the claws meet and swifty cut down through the head (it’s scary, but you can do it!). Transfer directly to the stockpot and cook, lid on, for two minutes. After two minutes, transfer to the ice bath to cool. The lobsters will be ruby red at this point, but the flesh will still be translucent. Carry on par cooking the remaining lobsters.
  • With a sharp knife and a steady hand, cut through the body and tail of each lobster, creating two halves. Remove the tomalley (green bits) from each lobster by placing under cold running water briefly until cleaned.

  • Lobster Newburg With Rice. Rich and creamy lobster Newburg tastes great over rice, toast points, or even puff pastry shells. It dates all the way back to 1876 when a sea captain gave the recipe to the chef of Delmonico's restaurant in New York City, but you can enjoy this luscious dish at home using boiled lobster pieces.
  • Classic Lobster Salad. Nothing beats fresh, citrusy lobster salad on a hot day after a long afternoon of boating—or really any time! It tastes wonderful over a bed of lettuce, on soft buns, garnished with chopped tomato and cucumber and perhaps some ripe avocado.
  • Grilled Lobster Tails. Even novice shellfish fans can cook up a simple grilled lobster tail recipe guaranteed to please any crowd. These directions assume you have frozen or fresh tails; if you start with a live lobster, you’ll have to parboil it first.
  • Lobster Macaroni Salad. This easy and versatile macaroni salad uses just mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a few simple herbs as well as delicious lobster meat.
  • Gluten-Free Lobster Bisque. A silky lobster bisque makes an excellent beginning to an elegant meal or a lovely light lunch and you don't have to forego it if you avoid gluten.
  • Basic Boiled Lobster. If you have never boiled a lobster at home before, here's a simple and easy recipe anyone can follow. Adding a piece of seaweed gives the meat a nice, briny flavor, but feel free to omit it if you can't get ahold of seaweed or don't like the sea-forward taste.
  • Lobster Stew. For a seafood stew that comes out hearty enough to make a meal, look no further than this decadent lobster stew. With heavy cream, butter, and of course, lobster, it's perfect for a chilly day.
  • Okra Stew With Prawns and Lobster Tails. For a tantalizing taste of Ghana, try this deeply flavorful okra stew chock full of squid, fish fillets, prawns, and lobster tails.
  • Lobster Pie With Mushrooms. For a different take on the classic chicken pot pie, try this lobster version. It still has a sherry-studded sauce, mushrooms, and flaky puff pastry crust, but lobster levels it up a bit.
  • Chilled Lobster With Mimosa Dressing. For a light appetizer to kick off a fancy dinner party, try these broiled lobster tails with orange and champagne vinegar mimosa dressing.
