Tips:

Choose the freshest lobster possible. Fresh lobster meat is firm and opaque, with a slightly sweet smell. Avoid lobster that is mushy, discolored, or has a strong fishy odor.
Cook the lobster properly. Overcooked lobster is tough and chewy. To prevent this, cook the lobster just until the meat is opaque and tender. You can test this by inserting a toothpick into the thickest part of the tail. If the toothpick goes in easily, the lobster is done.
Use high-quality mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is the base of lobster salad, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with fresh eggs and oil, and that has a smooth, creamy texture.
Add your favorite mix-ins. Lobster salad is a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. Some popular mix-ins include celery, red onion, hard-boiled eggs, and avocado. You can also add herbs, such as dill or chives, for extra flavor.
Serve lobster salad chilled. Lobster salad is best served chilled, so make sure to refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Curried lobster salad is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a special appetizer or main course, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
