4 lobsters
1 cup fish stock
1 -2 tablespoon vegetable oil (or more or less based on personal preference (see steps 2 & 3)
12 pickling onions, peeled

Sizzle the spices for about 30 seconds, then add the chopped tomato, lemon juice, stock and a little salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Just before serving return the lobster to the sauce and simmer for 2-3 minutes until cooked. Add the yogurt and heat through. Tip into a warm bowl, or serve directly from the pan. Garnish with the reserved tail fans and legs.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 ounces raw lobster meat, chopped
1-ounce macadamia nuts, toasted, chopped
3 to 5 fresh basil leaves, chopped
Pinch ground cumin
1 clove fresh garlic, minced
1 package wonton skins
2 teaspoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white wine
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
2 to 4 teaspoons curry powder
1 cup milk
Pinch granulated chicken bouillon
1/2-ounce honey
Black pepper
Chopped basil, for garnish
Grated Parmesan
Macadamia nuts, roasted for garnish

Steps:

  • To make the ravioli: mix all of the stuffing ingredients together. Place 1 wonton skin on a flat surface. Moisten the edges with a little water. Place about 2 teaspoons of the stuffing in the center of the wonton. Top with another wonton and press the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli and boil for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they float to the surface and the lobster is cooked through.
  • To make the sauce, in a nonstick pan, add the butter and melt. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until the mixture bubble like pancake batter, about 4 minutes. Whisk in the wine, garlic, and curry powder and cook until the mixture is thickened and the alcohol has cooked out of the wine, about 5 minutes. Add the milk slowly. Use chicken bouillon as your salt and sweeten with honey to your liking. After the sauce is nice and thick, add ravioli. Season with black pepper. Garnish with chopped basil, grated Parmesan, and roasted macadamia nuts.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked lobster meat. You can find it in the freezer section of most grocery stores.
  • If you're using fresh lobster, be sure to cook it properly. Overcooked lobster is tough and chewy.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your curry sauce. Some good options include bell peppers, carrots, and snap peas.
  • Serve your lobster with curry sauce over rice or noodles. You can also add a side of naan bread or roti.
  • Garnish your dish with fresh cilantro or parsley.

Conclusion:

Lobster with curry sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that's perfect for a special occasion. It's also surprisingly easy to make. With a little planning, you can have this dish on the table in under an hour. So next time you're looking for a seafood dish that's sure to impress, give lobster with curry sauce a try.
