CHINESE LOBSTER SAUCE (WEIGHT WATCHERS)



Chinese Lobster Sauce (Weight Watchers) image

A Weight Watchers recipes that tastes identical to the lobster sauce served in Chinese restaurants in our area. I've always wondered why it's called lobster sauce when there is no lobster in the recipe nor does it taste like lobster. To the best of my knowledge Chinese restaurants use pork so it could be an alternative to the ground beef.

KOWLOON'S LOBSTER SAUCE (FROM KOWLOON'S OF NEW ENGLAND MA)

I love lobster sauce and this was published in the Boston Herald as an answer to a request. by the way, it has no lobster in it in case you never had it before! I'm revising the quantities because I think they made a mistake on the amount of water. I used more black bean sauce and garlic, subbed the molasses with sugar because I didn't have any molasses and left out the egg. I like my way better!

CHINESE LOBSTER SAUCE

Found this on About.com: Chinese Food. People are often surprised to discover that this popular dish doesn't contain lobster at all. The name comes from the fact that one of the ingredients is fermented black beans, which the Cantonese use when preparing Cantonese lobster.
