Ingredients

  • 1 lobster
  • water
  • salt
  • 5 prawn heads, crawfish or shrimp heads
  • olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • lettuce

Directions

  1. 1
    Fill a large pot with 2 liters of water for every kilogram of lobster. Add about 70 grams of salt per liter of water. When the water is at a rolling boil, add the lobster and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. You will know when it is done if the shell has turned a bright red color.
  2. 2
    Let the lobster cool and remove the meat from the tail and the claws. You may want to keep the head for garnish later.
  3. 3
    Saute the prawn heads in a little oil until they release their juices.
  4. 4
    Remove the heads and pour that oil into a bowl with about 2 tablespoons more of oil, vinegar, and sesame seeds. Whisk well.
  5. 5
    Make a bed of lettuce. Lay the cooked lobster on top and drizzle everything with the vinaigrette.
