Best 4 Lobster And Crab Cakes With Chipotle Remoulade Recipes

LOBSTER AND CRAB CAKES WITH CHIPOTLE REMOULADE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Make the remoulade: Combine all except mayo in food processor and blend until smooth then add 1/2 cup mayonnaise and process until blended. Make the cakes: Combine everything in a mixing bowl except the crabmeat, lobster, and panko. Taste the mixture for seasoning. Gently fold in crabmeat and lobster, careful not to break up crabmeat too much. Fold in panko, adding enough so that the mixture is not too tight. Shape into balls and refridgerate for 30 minutes. Combine panko and dried thyme (thyme should appear sparingly through mixture) in a bowl. Form patties from the balls, dredge both sides in panko mixture (cakes should be relatively tight at this point) and saute on both sides til golden brown. Serve with chipotle remoulade.

FISH AND LOBSTER CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery and bell pepper and cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Place the fish on top of the vegetables and add the cream, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 6 to 12 minutes (depending on the thickness of the cod), until the fish is just cooked. Set aside in the pan for 10 minutes, then flake the fish into large pieces with a fork.
• Put 2 cups of the panko in a large bowl. Add the cod mixture, including the cooking liquid, the dill, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon zest, eggs, lobster, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and mix gently.
• Using a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop as a measure, shape the mixture into 14 (3-inch) fish cakes. Place the remaining 2 cups of panko on a plate and coat the cakes all over, patting the coating to adhere. Wipe the saute pan clean with a paper towel and heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan over medium heat. Place 5 cakes in the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side, until nicely browned on both sides. Transfer the cakes to a sheet pan and keep them warm in the oven for up to 15 minutes. Repeat, adding more butter and oil, until the entire mixture is cooked. Serve hot with the remoulade sauce.
• Remoulade Sauce: Place the mayonnaise, cornichons, mustard, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse a few times until the cornichons are finely chopped (not pureed). Transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.

LOBSTER & CELERIAC REMOULADE

Steps:

• To prepare the lobster, remove the roe if there is any (if you want to include it in the remoulade, set it aside). Twist off and peel the tail, halve lengthways, slice thickly and set aside. Crack the claws and try to remove the meat whole, setting it aside with the tail. Winkle out the rest of the meat from the knuckles and the legs, and keep separate.
• Pour the lemon juice into a bowl. Finely cut the celeriac into matchsticks, or coarsely grate or spiralize it. Tip it straight into the lemon juice and toss to prevent it browning. Add the mayo, mustard and Tabasco, season and mix well. Now stir in the broken bits of lobster meat, most of the roe (if using) and the chopped dill. Can be done 1 day ahead up to this point - keep in the fridge and remove 1 hr before serving.
• Neatly spoon the celeriac in the middle of two small plates. Arrange the lobster claw on one side and the tail meat on top and scatter with the dill fronds and the rest of the roe. Serve with toast, if you like.
