Инструкции
- If using live American lobsters, kill them immediately before cooking. Remove the stomach and throw away; remove the claws and legs and reserve; split the tail as directed. Place claws, legs and body on grill over a medium-warm fire and cover with foil. Place the tail meat-side up. Grill till the shells are bright red, turning the claws and tail once. Grill the legs 4 to 6 min, claws about 8 min, tail and body 8 to 10 min.
- If frzn, thaw the lobster in the refrigerator overnight.
- To make the vinaigrette, halve the cucumber and reserve half for another use. If using regular waxed cucumbers, scrub the skin to remove wax and remove seeds before dicing. With a vegetable peeler, remove 4 lengthwise strips of skin and throw away. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and then into 1/8-inch dice.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mango puree, ginger, garlic, salt, rum, orange zest, orange juice, chile, thyme and vegetable oil; stir in the cucumber. Taste the vinaigrette for seasoning and refrigeratetill needed.
- Set each lobster tail with the transluscent membrane down and curved shell facing up. With kitchen shears or possibly a heavy, sharp knife cut through the curved shell and meat, leaving the membrane intact. Open the tail gently like a book so its hinged in the center. Pour 1/2 tsp. of the extra virgin olive oil over each tail; season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place the lobster meat-side up over a medium-warm fire and grill till opaque, 8 to 10 min, turning once. Serve with Tropical Vinaigrette and grilled garlic bread.
