Method

  • Crack the lobster claws with the back of a knife. Hold onto the claw hinge and twist the claws off the lobster. Break each joint of the claws to make it easier to extract the contents.
  • Place the lobster on its back and cut from the middle out towards the tail tip with a sharp, heavy knife. Then, cut from the middle forward towards the head.
  • Remove the stomach sac located at the front of the head, and the intestine along the back. Clean the lobster meat from the shell.
  • Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package.

White Sauce

  • Bring milk and fish stock to a boil in a saucepan, together with parsley, pepper, and bay leaves. Set the milk mixture aside.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan and stir in flour.
  • Gradually add the milk mixture, little by little.
  • Let the sauce simmer gently for about 20 minutes on low heat.
  • Remove bay leaves, and fold in lobster meat and pasta just before serving.
  • Serve the pasta with finely chopped basil and a squeeze of lime juice.
