South Asian Tandoori Lobster Ingredients:

5 large, fresh, live Maine lobsters

2 large, fresh/raw, organic, heritage chicken eggs, Irish-buttered, beaten up

4 TBL organic garam masala spice blend

1 and a half ounces organic butter, from grass-fed cows only, melted, pasteurized

4 TBL organic, fresh, Meyer lemon juice

1 tsp ajowan

1 tsp sea salt, finely-ground

4 TBL organic besan flour

4 TBL organic stevia powder

1 tsp organic, red cayenne powder

1 tsp organic, smoked, Hungarian paprika

4 TBL fresh, organic ginger root, peeled, soaked, washed, then pureed

4 TBL fresh, organic, garlic cloves, smashed, peeled, ends trimmed, soaked, washed, then pureed

1 and a half cups organic double/heavy cream, unsweetened, pasteurized, from grass-fed cows only

Garnishing:

2 large bunches of organic, fresh cilantro leaves, stems removed, soaked, washed/triple-rinsed, then, chopped into 1/4-inch pieces

Directions:

First, freeze the lobsters for 2 hours, then use an electric knife to cut each lobster in half, lengthwise.

Next, remove the tail meat, and chop it into large chunks.

Clean the shells, including heads, inside and outside with water and a bit of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.

We'll later oven-roast the shells, to turn them bright red, separately from the lobster meat. ***They'll be used as natural dishes for the finished lobsters.***

Whisk all ingredients together, and marinate the lobster meat in the fridge, in air-tight, water-tight containers, covered for three hours.

To cook:

Preheat the oven to a low broil temperature. Set the shells in to roast at center rack, on a cookie sheet, until they're a bright red color, approximately 12 minutes.

Next, low broil the lobster meat in a glass bakeware pan, with the marinade, for approximately 12 minutes.

Turn it over with a spatula (heat-proof one), at six minutes, or halfway through the low broiling time. Add 10 more TBL of melted, pasteurized, organic, unsalted butter to it when you turn it over.

Finally, check the lobster meat with a meat thermometer.  Use the shells as natural dishes fo it. Garnish with fresh cilantro and organic, fresh, Meyer lemon wedges.
