We first had this at The Muse down in Kensington. What a fabulous combo!!! So easy and so elegant!! The flavours go so fantastically together plus you get the textures of the crunchy popcorn with the melt in your mouth lobster. I love this appetizer and you will too!!
1/2 to 1- 6 oz. lobster tail per person
Melted butter to drizzle
1 heaping cup of popcorn per person
Salt to taste
Truffle oil or truffle olive oil to drizzle
Parsley to garnish
Steam the lobster tail in a small amount of water for 10 min. Pop popcorn according to manufacturer instructions. Do not use microwave flavoured popcorn. The old fashioned fresh way of doing it on the stove is the best. With no additional flavourings or salt added. Salt popcorn while it is still hot and drizzle with truffle oil. Cut the lobster tail in half and drizzle with melted butter. Garnish with the parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy this wonderful flavour combination!!!
Would not have thought of the combination, but this certainly looks delicious! Love it!
I love the addition of popcorn….. I bet it added such great texture to this dish. The entire thing sounds fantastic!
I love how fun this is, while still being such a beautiful dish! Thanks so much for sharing!
Truffle oil popcorn?! And lobster?!! Totally brillant!
That is such a wonderful looking combination. Your picture is terrific!
Thank you all so much, this is one of our favourite combinations!!
Oh my word, Tara! How fabulous does this look?!!! I would never think to pair lobster and popcorn, but the combination is both simple and elegant! I can only imagine how wonderful this tastes! Your photos are so inviting! I have been craving lobster since seeing a recipe on the food network last week. And today, a coworker talked about a food truck fair in our area and one truck in particular that served lobster rolls. But I think THIS is the way to go! : )
Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope you try it. It is so good!!
very interesting plate. I love lobster and popcorn so I’m sure I’d fancy this! thanks for sharing
