Lobster recipe: LOBSTER, TRIPLE-COOKED CHIPS AND BÉARNAISE SAUCE

Ingredients:
- 600 grams of lobster, sliced lengthwise

- 1 tablespoon of lime juice

- 3 tablespoons of butter

- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

- salt and pepper

- chopped parsley for garnish

- 3 large potatoes, washed well and chopped into wedges

- Vegetable oil for frying

- 2 sticks of butter

- 3 shallots, minced

- 2 tablespoons tarragon leaves, chopped

- 1 teaspoon peppercorns, crushed

- ¼ cup vinegar

- 1/3 cup white wine

- 4 egg yolks

- ½ teaspoon salt



How to cook the LOBSTER, TRIPLE-COOKED CHIPS AND BÉARNAISE SAUCE recipe:

Step 1: In a sauce pan, melt the butter in low heat. In a separate pan, combine the shallots, peppercorns, wine, vinegar and tarragon. Leave it in medium heat and reduce down to 25% of the volume. Then strain the sauce onto a heated double boiler. Whisk in the egg yolks into the reduction, dropping the eggs one by one. Place the pan of yolks onto a bowl of ice cold water. Add the melted butter in a slow drizzle while whisking.

Step 2: Preheat the oven to 200°. Drop the fries in hot oil and let it cook for 3-4 minutes in low fire. Fish out the chips from the oil and lay them on a baking pan. Sprinkle sea salt and cook it in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Place it back to the deep fryer and let it turn golden brown.

Step 3: In a shallow pan, melt the butter in some oil. Season the meaty side of the lobster with salt and pepper and place it in the pan open side down. Cook it for a quick minute and then add the lime juice.

Step 4: Serve the lobster with the Béarnaise sauce and chips on the side.
