1 1/3 cups finely chopped shallots

3 large garlic cloves, chopped

  • For filling:
  • Cook lentils in medium saucepan of simmering water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add leeks; sauté until tender, about 15 minutes. Add lentils, lobster meat, crabmeat and 1/2 cup lobster sauce.
