Oven-roasted lobster

  • 0.5 l Oil Neutral flavor oil
  • Flake Salt

Instructions

Risotto

  • Chop the onion and press the garlic.
  • Heat the oil in a sauté pan and sauté the onion and garlic. They should just become soft and not take on color. 
  • Now add the risotto rice and let it sauté with the onion and garlic for 1 minute.
  • Now pour in the white wine, and let it cook while stirring until the wine has evaporated. 
  • Now add the chicken stock a little at a time, allowing the rice to absorb the liquid as you stir. 
  • Continue adding more chicken stock until the rice is al dente - that is, with a bite. This takes about 25 minutes.
  • A few minutes before it is done, add the butter and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Season with balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. 
  • When serving, add a little more freshly grated Parmesan. The consistency should be creamy, so the risotto flows a bit when served.   
  • Pat the 6 scallops dry and sprinkle them with a little fine salt and sugar.
  • Heat a pan with ghee/clarified butter - find the recipe and description for ghee here. Alternatively, you can use a combination of oil and butter. 
  • Fry the scallops for 45 seconds on one side and 20 seconds on the other side.   
  • Remove the underside of the langoustine tails with scissors and season with salt and pepper. Rub them with neutral flavor oil. 
  • Secure the claws to the tails as shown in the picture below. Place the langoustines in a dish and bake them in the oven at 225 degrees Celsius (437 degrees Fahrenheit) with fan for about 3.5-4 minutes.
  • Afterwards, pull the cooked tails out of the shell - make sure the intestine also remains in the shell. If not, it should be removed.   
  • Peel the Jerusalem artichokes and slice them thinly on a mandoline. Let them dry on kitchen paper without touching each other. Press the Jerusalem artichokes with additional kitchen paper and a heavy ovenproof dish on top. 
  • Meanwhile, heat neutral flavor oil in a pot to 150 degrees Celsius (302 degrees Fahrenheit). 
  • Put 4-5 chips in the pot at a time - if you add too many, the temperature will drop.
  • When it stops bubbling/sizzling around the Jerusalem artichokes, they are ready to be taken out. 
  • Place them on kitchen paper and sprinkle with salt.
