Lobster Cakes: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe for Amazing Flavor


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 12 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound lobster meat, cooked and chopped
– 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
– 1/2 cup mayonnaise
– 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
– 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
– 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 large eggs
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– Vegetable oil for frying


Instructions

Creating Lobster Cakes is straightforward if you follow these carefully crafted steps:

1. Prepare Lobster: Start by ensuring your lobster meat is cooked, cooled, and chopped into small pieces. Set aside.
2. In a Mixing Bowl: Combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are smooth.
3. Add Eggs: Whisk the eggs into the mixture until well combined.
4. Incorporate Lobster: Gently fold in the chopped lobster meat and parsley. Ensure it’s evenly distributed without breaking up the lobster too much.
5. Add Breadcrumbs: Gradually stir in the breadcrumbs until the mixture is firm enough to hold together. If it appears too wet, add a bit more breadcrumbs.
6. Chill Mixture: For optimal cakes, cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 15-30 minutes. This chilling time helps the cakes firm up.
7. Shape Cakes: After chilling, use your hands to form the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.
8. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat a thin layer of vegetable oil over medium heat.
9. Fry Cakes: Carefully place the lobster cakes in the skillet. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
10. Drain and Serve: Once cooked, remove the cakes from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm.

These steps will guide you in making incredible lobster cakes that are bursting with flavor and texture!
