Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium sized russet potatoes
2.5 oz boursin cheese
1/2-3/4 c whole milk
4 T butter
4 oz. heavy cream
1 1/2 T Old Bay seasoning
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp fresh chives (minced)
1 cooked lobster tail (meat removed from shell and roughly chopped)

Steps:

  • Peel and dice the potatoes. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until fork tender. Drain, then return to the pan over medium heat. Using a potato masher or wooden spoon, roughly mash the potatoes for 1 minute to remove the excess water that remains.
  • Remove from the heat and add in the boursin cheese. Use a handheld mixer on medium speed to melt the cheese into the potatoes. Slowly add in the milk and whip until the potatoes are a creamy texture and no lumps remain.
  • In a small saute pan over medium heat, melt together the butter and cream. Add the Old Bay, chili powder and lobster pieces and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the chives.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

½ cup butter
2 (7 ounce) cans lobster meat, diced
1 medium onion, diced
2 large stalks celery, diced
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
⅛ teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
⅛ teaspoon seasoned salt
1 bay leaf
⅛ teaspoon lemon juice
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons tomato paste
½ cup cream sherry
1 quart heavy cream
½ teaspoon salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the lobster, onion, celery, carrot, thyme, parsley, peppercorns, seasoned salt, bay leaf, and lemon juice. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat to soften the vegetables, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour and tomato paste; cook for another 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour in sherry and cook for a minute or two to cook off the alcohol.
  • Pour in the heavy cream, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, simmer until the sauce has thickened, and will coat the back of a spoon, about 15 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer, and discard the solids. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

LOBSTER-STUFFED POTATOES



Lobster-Stuffed Potatoes image

Provided by Marc Murphy

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium Yukon gold potatoes (2 1/2 to 3 pounds), scrubbed and dried
Two 1 1/2-pound lobsters
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 cup finely chopped scallions, plus more for garnish
1 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
1 cup (about 3 3/4 ounces) shredded Gruyere

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F; position an oven rack in the middle of the oven.
  • Poke holes in the potatoes, then place them on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until just soft, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the lobsters in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes-this will put the lobsters to sleep and calm them down so they're not so acrobatic when you try to finish them off. Fill a large pot with water and add enough salt so the water tastes like seawater, then bring to a boil. Fill a very large bowl with ice and water.
  • Working with one lobster at a time, in one decisive motion, plunge a chef's knife into and all the way through the lobster's head so the head is halved vertically-this kills it quickly. Break down the lobster by removing the claws and the tail. Discard the lobster carcasses or save them to make lobster stock later.
  • Add the lobster tails to the boiling water and cook for 3 minutes, then add the claws and cook for an additional 6 to 7 minutes. Remove the lobster from the boiling water and set aside. Once cool, crack the claws and tails and remove the meat. Quarter the tails lengthwise and chop. Cut the claw meat in half and chop it into pieces the same size as the tail meat.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly; leave the oven on. Carefully, without breaking the skin, slice the potatoes in half and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Reserve for later.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and cook until the milk solids sink to the bottom of the pan and turn hazelnut brown and the butter starts to smell nutty, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rosemary and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the scooped potato flesh, salt and pepper to the saucepan and stir to combine. Add the chopped lobster, creme fraiche and 3/4 cup of the Gruyere. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Spoon the potato-lobster mixture into the potato shells and place them in a 9-by-13-inch baking pan or on a quarter-sheet tray. Sprinkle the potatoes with the remaining 1/4 cup Gruyere and bake until the potatoes are hot and bubbling, 12 to 15 minutes. Top with the scallions, and serve.

LOBSTER MASHED POTATOES



Lobster Mashed Potatoes image

I had this amazing dish at a lovely Pacific Northwest steakhouse and I knew I had to figure out how to make this special treat. These potatoes were so delicious, I could have skipped the steak entirely. This is my take on this rich and decadent side dish. This has become one of our traditions on Valentine's Day with a fabulous tenderloin steak. YUMMY! This would work well with your own mashed potato recipe instead of the basic mashed potato recipe listed here. You could certainly do this recipe with lobster tails instead of the whole lobster. You could even use precooked lobster ignoring the lobster cooking instructions. It looks like it is time consuming, but it is so easy and worth the effort for a special meal.

A perfect side dish for a romantic dinner or special event, such as Valentine's Day. Note the recipe only serves 2, if you plan to make more, you may have to take out a second mortgage on the house!

LOBSTER MASHED POTATOES RECIPE - (3.7/5)



Lobster Mashed Potatoes Recipe - (3.7/5) image

Provided by á-4922

Number Of Ingredients 17

MASHED POTATOES:
10 medium to large Yukon potatoes, peeled and diced
3 bay leaves
1 pound butter, for the potatoes
1 cup heavy cream, hot
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
6 ounces soft herbed cheese (recommended: Boursin)
4 ounces sour cream
BURRE FONDUE:
1 quart chicken stock
4 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon black pepper corns
3 thyme sprigs
2 pounds butter, diced and kept cold
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
1 pound lobster meat, diced
1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes with the bay leaves until the potatoes are tender. Drain the potatoes well and discard the bay leaves, then mash the potatoes, using a food mill, add the butter, cream hot and salt and white pepper. Fold the Boursin cheese and sour cream allowing it to melt into the potatoes and set aside in a warm place. Combine all ingredients, except the butter. Bring to a simmer and reduce by 2/3. Turn down the heat, and start adding the cold butter whisking constantly to emulsify. Adjust seasoning with salt and white pepper. Strain through chinois. To finish, gently poach the diced lobster in the burre fondue. Place the poached lobster on top of the boursin mashed potatoes. Sauce with some more burre fondue. Garnish with chives. If you are using fresh lobster, I suggest that you steam the lobster to make it easier to remove from the shell. Then heat and complete the cooking by warming it in the butter sauce. I also like to cook the claws longer than the tail. You don't want the tails to be over cooked and rubbery. This recipe is well worth the effort for cooking and cleaning the fresh lobster.

Tips:

  • Make an indulgent lobster sauce by utilizing both lobster meat and shells.
  • Begin with a flavorful base by sautéing onion, celery, carrot, and garlic.
  • Enhance the sauce's richness with quality white wine and dry sherry.
  • Incorporate tomato paste and crushed tomatoes to intensify the sauce's depth.
  • Simmer the sauce patiently to allow the flavors to meld harmoniously.
  • Use fresh herbs like thyme, bay leaf, and parsley to impart an aromatic touch.
  • Blend heavy cream and butter to create a luscious, creamy sauce.
  • Season the sauce meticulously with salt, pepper, and a touch of cayenne for a balanced flavor.
  • Garnish the finished sauce with fresh chopped parsley for an elegant presentation.

Conclusion:

Indulge in a delectable culinary experience by pairing your velvety lobster sauce with perfectly mashed potatoes. The combination of tender lobster, rich sauce, and fluffy potatoes creates a symphony of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a comforting and luxurious meal, lobster sauce for mashed potatoes is an exceptional choice that is sure to impress. So, gather your ingredients, embrace the culinary journey, and indulge in this exquisite dish that showcases the delectable flavors of the sea and the earth.
