Recipe 🍳

  1. In boiling water, add thyme, bay leaf, whole peppercorns, lime cut with peel, and mirin. Add the lobster tails, secured with toothpicks to prevent curling, and poach. Then, cool in cold water. [00:04:34]
  2. In a blender, add 500g of frozen mango, the zest of 1 lime, and the juice of the lime. [00:05:24]
  3. Roughly chop the red chili pepper, Cheongyang chili pepper, ginger, and cilantro, and add them to the blender along with 3 tablespoons of honey, 5 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. [00:05:47]
  4. Blend until perfectly smooth and thick, like an ice cream texture, to create the spicy mango smoothie sauce. [00:06:08]
  5. Carefully remove the shell from the cooled lobster meat, separating the red flesh cleanly. Drain any excess moisture. [00:07:01]
  6. Arrange mini romaine lettuce on a plate. Generously spoon the spicy mango smoothie sauce over it, then place the separated lobster meat on top, and finish with a drizzle of olive oil. [00:07:40]
  1. Poach lobster tails in boiling water with herbs and lime, then cool in cold water. [00:04:34]
  2. Add mango, chili peppers, ginger, cilantro, lime juice, honey, and olive oil to a blender. [00:05:24]
  3. Blend until it has an ice cream-like texture to make the smoothie sauce. [00:06:08]
  4. Remove the shell from the poached lobster and separate the meat. [00:07:01]
  5. Serve romaine lettuce with smoothie sauce, top with lobster, and finish with olive oil. [00:07:40]

Cooking tips 💡

  • When poaching lobster, inserting long toothpicks on both sides of the tail prevents it from curling, resulting in a much prettier presentation. [00:04:53]
  • The balance of flavors is maximized when the sweetness and sourness of the mango, and the spiciness, are harmonized with salt. Therefore, be sure to add salt when seasoning to achieve the perfect balance. [00:06:08]
