Time 38m

Yield 14 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/4 cup chopped carrot
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
2 1/2 lbs cooked lobster tail meat, cut into chunks
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped parsley
salt and pepper
1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
vegetable oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
  • Add in the onion, garlic, and carrots; saute and stir frequently for 3 minutes or until onions are soft.
  • Add in the bell peppers and saute another 2 minutes.
  • Add in the lobster meat and cook 1 minute or until heated through; Set aside to cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Transfer lobster mixture to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add in eggs, mayonnaise, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste; stir to mix well.
  • Add 1 cup of bread crumbs to lobster mixture; toss to mix.
  • Add more breadcrumbs if needed so that mixture barely holds it shape.
  • Take 1/4 cup lobster mixture and shape cakes by hand.
  • Pour oil into a large nonstick skillet to 1/4 inch depth; heat over medium heat.
  • When very hot, add lobster cakes.
  • Cook for about 3 minutes per side (for a 1-inch thick cake) or until golden brown on both sides.
  • Remove from skillet and drain on paper-towel lined plate.
  • Serve warm with your favorite sauce--we like honey mustard sauce.
