 1 qt. milk
1 tsp. white wine Worcestershire sauce
1/2 lb. butter or margarine
1 tsp. black pepper
1 cup flour
1/2 cup sherry
1 finely minced shallot
2 tbsp. paprika
2 fluid oz. clarified butter
1/2 cup lobster fumet
4 1-2lb. cooked, shucked, lobsters-save tomalley 1 patty shell per person
Preparation
In a 2 qt. double boiler, bring 1 qt. of milk to 180 degrees. While the milk is heating, melt the margarine in a small saucepan. Add the flour and
mix thoroughly to the melted margarine with a wire whip . Slowly add this roux to the scalded milk, stirring constantly with the whip. Keep whipping to avoid lumping as the sauce thickens. Add the Dijon mustard mix and then the lobster fumet, slowly whipping until smooth. Set aside.
In a large sauté pan, put the clarified butter and the minced shallot and cook on low heat until the shallot is slightly browned. Cut the lobster meat into bite sized pieces and add butter and shallots. Cook on heat for about 1 minute then add worcestershire and black pepper. While stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, add the sherry and the lobster tomalley and cook until the sherry starts to boil approximately 2 min. Sprinkle in the paprika and add the white sauce. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and serve on a golden brown patty shell. |
