Lobster tales

Product Information

Our favourite rolls are at Fraq’s Loster Shack and Hawksmoor, but now that Ocado sells frozen lobster tails they’re very easy to make yourself at home. Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through. For a more formal presentation, try plating the lobster tails on a large white serving dish, garnished with fresh herbs and lemon wedges.

Remove and discard the stomach sac, gills and intestinal thread, although you may want to keep the liver – known as tomalley, it's considered by some to be a delicacy. Twist off the legs, flatten them with the back of a knife then get to work on digging out the flesh using a pick or the end of a teaspoon. Place the lobster tails on the bbq grill, flesh-side down, and cook for 4-5 minutes until lightly charred.The great thing about frozen lobsters is that the slightly grisly process of tackling a live version is bypassed.

There are plenty of vegetables, tender lobster, prawn, and crab, as well as a mouthwatering creole garlic flavour.Understanding the anatomy of the lobster tail is important when it comes to cooking, as different parts of the tail can cook at different rates. Everyone loves mac ’n’ cheese, but the addition of sweet, rich lobster turns this into a luxurious treat. Broiling is a high-heat cooking method that can instantly turn lobster tail meat from tender and tasty to dried out rubbery texture in a matter of minutes. Lobster Thermidor is a bit different – this classic dish is creamy and cheesy with hot mustard overtones so it needs something light and fresh on the side; raw fennel, green beans and sugar snap peas dressed in garlic are all good options. They made 28 cuts deleting frames from the film and 6 additional cuts to the soundtrack that didn't cut the film length, shortening the film by 0:11:47, from 1:34:56 down to 1:23:09, and released their shortened version on DVD in 2009.

Place the lobster tails in the bamboo steamer, shut the lid, and steam until the flesh is opaque and white — or an instant read thermometer registers around 60°C.

Remove the lobster tails from the bbq and serve immediately with some veggie rice or sauteed broccolini. When eating the lobster meat, use a fork and knife to carefully remove it from the shell, taking care not to break the delicate meat. How long to cook lobster tails under the broiler: Broil 4 inches from heat for 12 to 14 minutes or until lobster meat is opaque.
