No, I am not making this up! This is a very old Irish recipe for lobster. Somehow the idea of boiling your lawyer (lobster), then flambeeing him before dousing him in cream, is somehow a justice to the world! Not only is the name fun, but it is an excellent recipe which is great when you have a few quid to spare! If I don't want to go to the hassle of cleaning and boiling the shells, I will sometimes just serve this over toast points, or a pasta of some kind. But the shells make a great presentation!

Move over corned beef... this is my new favorite Irish dish to make! Not only because you get to set it on fire, but it is absolutely delicious. It's a bit plain looking (a plate full of white!), but I was shocked at how flavorful it was. I recommend serving it over Irish Colcannon.
