Langdon Lobster Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Saute the onions and fennel with the butter in a large saute pan on medium heat until the onions are translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the flour and cook on low heat for 3 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Slowly add the stock, Pernod, salt, and pepper and simmer for 5 more minutes. Add the heavy cream.
• Cut the lobster meat into medium-sized cubes. Place the lobster, frozen peas, frozen onions, and parsley in a bowl (there is no need to defrost the vegetables). Pour the sauce over the mixture and check the seasonings. Set aside.
• For the crust, mix the flour, salt, and baking powder in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add the lard and butter and pulse 10 times, until the fat is the size of peas. With the motor running, add the ice water; process only enough to moisten the dough and have it just come together. Dump the dough out on a floured surface and knead quickly into a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic and allow it to rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Divide the dough in half and roll out each half to fit a 9 or 9 1/2-inch round by 2-inch high ovenproof glass or ceramic baking dish. Place 1 crust in the dish, fill with the lobster mixture, and top with the second crust. Crimp the crusts together and brush with the egg wash. Make 4 or 5 slashes in the top crust and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling hot.

Steps:

• Break up cooked lobster meat.
• I like to have mine broken rather small, again, you be the judge.
• You can't really mess this recipe up.
• Lay the meat in the bottom of a glass pan, the lobster should cover the bottom of the pan.
• I have also made this in those individual little thingies you make onion soup in, this is nice if you are having company.
• Pour some melted butter on top of the lobster.
• Just enough to coat it a little.
• At this point is when I usually start to pick at the lobster, You know: One for the pan, one for me!
• TRY not to do this, it really is better if you have a nice amount of lobster at the bottom of the dish!
• Pour some Half& Half over the meat next.
• The milk should come just about half way up the meat, not cover it.
• Don't worry if you think you have poured too much, it will be okay.
• I did this once and looked like an idiot at the sink trying to pour out some milk while keeping the lobster in!
• It will all work out in the end, promise!
• Put in the oven at 350 for about 15 minutes.
• While this is cooking you can make the crust.
• Super easy.
• Just crush up the crackers, right in a frying pan.
• Use the back of a big spoon, as fine as you like em.
• I don't make mine super fine, just kinda crushed.
• Then add whats left of the stick of butter.
• You can add more if you think it is too dry.
• Throw in the garlic and parsley.
• Cook over low heat just to let the butter melt.
• Stir it all together so the crackers get nice and coated.
• Spread this evenly over the lobster.
• Push it down a bit so that it can absorb the liquid in the pie.
• Set back in the oven for about 5 minutes.
• Let it sit on the counter for a couple minutes, just to set up and cool a bit.
• And then enjoy!
• That was sure a lot of typing for such an easy recipe, but it is worth it.
