A few years ago while vacationing in the Hamptons I finally got up the nerve (and the bank) to make my own lobster rolls. After the revolution hit all the NYC restaurants we craved them constantly especially at the beach. Plus they seemed easy enough to make and guess what, they are! Try them out for lunch on a hot summer day alongside a ice cold beer – yum! —
INGREDIENTS: (Makes four servings)
1/2 lb fresh lobster meat
3 scallions, chopped
1 tsp mayonnaise
1/2 lemon, squeezed
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Butter
4 potato rolls hot dog rolls
Directions:
Cut the lobster meat into bite sized chunks and toss with the chopped scallions. Add the mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Heat a saute pan on medium and melt butter. Toast the inside of each hot dog roll until lightly browned. Fill with lobster salad and serve immediately.
