Ingredients
- 1 tbsp cooking salt
- 4 large green lobster tails
- 1 quantity
- 1 quantity
- 1 bunch chervil
- lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
Place a large boiler of water over a high heat and add the salt, bring to the boil.
Add the lobster tails and reduce to a simmer. Cook the lobsters for 1 minute per 30 grams – e.g. 300 g tails should be simmered for 10 minutes. Remove from the water and allow to cool.
Once cold, use scissors and snip down the underside of the lobster tail, crack open the tail and remove the meat, cut into medallions and chill until ready to serve.
Warm the baby brioche buns and cut almost all the way through. Top with medallions of lobster, lemon mayonnaise and chervil sprigs.
Serve with wedges of lemon to squeeze over.
