- Steam potatoes until tender, about 13 minutes. Transfer to large bowl; cool. Add 1/2 cup onions, eggs, and 1/2 cup dressing; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss all cabbage, carrots, remaining chopped onions and remaining dressing in large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. (Potato salad and coleslaw can be made 6 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate separately.)
- Drop lobsters headfirst into large pot of boiling water. Cover; cook until shells are bright red and centers are opaque, about 9 minutes. Using tongs, transfer lobsters, shell side down, to work surface. Place tip of large knife into center of each lobster and cut lengthwise in half from center to end of head (knife may not cut through shell); then cut in half from center to end of tail.

Steps:
- Steam the potatoes for 15 minutes or until tender. Place in the fridge to cool completely.
- Mix together the mayo, vinegar, and sugar. Add the coleslaw mix and combine well.
- Add pepper and cumin seeds and mix. Making sure the potatoes are cold, add them to the coleslaw and do a taste test for salt.
- Garnish with chopped mint if desired.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes like Red Potatoes or Yukon Gold Potatoes hold their shape better and won't become mushy in the salad.
- Cook the potatoes correctly: Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender but still firm, then drain and cool completely before adding to the salad.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: This allows the flavors to meld and develop, resulting in a more flavorful salad.
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients make all the difference in the taste of your salad.
- Don't overcrowd the salad: Make sure you have a large enough bowl to accommodate all of the ingredients without overcrowding. This will help prevent the salad from becoming mushy.
- Serve the salad cold: Coleslaw potato salad is best served cold. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
