Why you should make lobster sandwich

This Lobster Sandwich combines seafood with a creamy sauce and buttery bread. It is very quick to prepare if you use pre cooked lobster. The lemon and herbs add a fresh taste that balances the rich meat. It is a great choice for a summer lunch.

Follow these 4 steps for lobster sandwich

Step 1

Prepare meat: Cut the cooked lobster into bite sized chunks. Place the pieces in a small bowl and check for any remaining shell.

Step 2

Mix dressing: Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice and fresh chives to the lobster. Stir gently and season with a little salt and pepper.

Step 3

Toast rolls: Slice the brioche rolls down the middle but do not cut all the way through. Butter the sides and toast them in a hot frying pan until golden.

Step 4

Assemble sandwich: Fill each toasted roll with a generous amount of the lobster mixture. Serve immediately while the bread is still warm and crisp.

My best tips for lobster sandwich

Using fresh lobster provides the best flavour for your Lobster Sandwich. If you buy whole lobster, make sure to remove all the meat from the claws and tail. You can add a little celery if you like an extra crunch in the filling. Brioche is a great choice because its sweetness complements the seafood. Make sure not to over toast the bread as it should stay soft on the inside. You can prepare the filling an hour in advance and keep it in the fridge.

This allows the flavours to blend together before you serve.

A soft brioche roll is the most popular choice for a Lobster Sandwich. The buttery sweetness of the bread pairs perfectly with the delicate seafood. You can also use a standard hot dog bun if it is high quality and lightly toasted.

How should I store a leftover Lobster Sandwich?

It is best to store the lobster filling and the bread separately in the fridge. The Lobster Sandwich will become soggy if you assemble it too early. The filling will stay fresh in an airtight container for up to two days.

Can I use frozen lobster for this sandwich?

You can use frozen meat to make your sandwich as long as it is fully thawed. Drain any excess water before mixing it with the mayonnaise. This ensures the filling stays creamy and does not become thin or watery.
