LOBSTER STUFFED POTATO
I got this recipe from a chef who taught a gourmet cooking class many years ago. The recipe is from the award winning restaurant "Windows on The Water" which is in Kennebunkport, Maine, not far from President Bush's family compound. I'm sure you could substitute the lobster meat with imitation crab or lobster. Lobster meat is very expensive; around $23.00 per pound.

This is my grandmother's recipe for stuffed coldwater lobster. It is far and away my favorite meal, and if you feel like splurging you will not be disappointed. Also, this same stuffing is excellent for fish. Serve with more melted butter for dipping.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes. Russet potatoes are the best choice for this recipe because they are large and have a fluffy texture. You can also use Yukon Gold or red potatoes, but they will not be as fluffy.
- Bake the potatoes until they are tender. The potatoes should be tender enough to easily pierce with a fork. If the potatoes are not tender, they will be difficult to stuff.
- Use a variety of fillings. The possibilities are endless when it comes to fillings for lobster stuffed potatoes. Some popular options include lobster meat, shrimp, crab, and vegetables.
- Season the filling to taste. Be sure to season the filling with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Top the potatoes with cheese. A layer of cheese on top of the filling will help to brown the potatoes and add a delicious flavor.
- Bake the potatoes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 10 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately. Lobster stuffed potatoes are best served hot out of the oven.

Lobster stuffed potatoes are a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. They are also relatively easy to make, so you can enjoy them any time you want. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and impressive meal on the table in no time.
