Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 2 lobsters (each about 1 kg)
- salt
- peppers
- 3 Tbsps olive oil
- 1 lemon (sliced)
- ½ l fish stock
- 2 Tbsps Fish sauce
- 3 sprigs Lemongrass
Preparation steps
Bring 3 l (approximately 3 quarts) of water to a boil with the fish stock and lemongrass. Add the lobsters head first into the liquid. Boil 1 at a time, or the liquid will cool down too much. Cook for 3-5 minutes per lobster. Remove from the cooking liquid, and butterfly the lobsters without cutting all the way through.
To do this, start the tip of the knife above the breastplate, and then press the knife down. Keep going until you feel the shell at the bottom of the lobster. Season the lobster with salt and pepper. Brush the cut surfaces of the lobster with oil and stuff with the lemon slices.
Place the lobsters cut side down on the grill and cook for 3 minutes. Turn over, and cook flesh side up for an additional 4-5 minutes. (you want to sear the meat quickly, because this makes the meat juicy. The total cooking time should be about 8 minutes.)
Place the shrimp in the food processor and process into a fine paste. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until very stiff. Fold into the shrimp paste with the chives. Spread on the bread and cook under the broiler until the egg whites have set.
