Risotto Base

Cheese Crisps

Method

Lobster and Glaze Preparation

1

Sauté Lobster

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic, and sauté until soft. Add lobster meat and sauté until just cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside.

2

Make Lobster Glaze

In the same skillet, add lobster stock, heavy cream, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Simmer until reduced by half and thickened, about 10-15 minutes.

Risotto Preparation

3

Cook Risotto

In a separate pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add Arborio rice and toast for about 2-3 minutes. Pour in white wine and stir until absorbed. Gradually add lobster stock mixture, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently until absorbed before adding more.

4

Finish Risotto

Once rice is al dente and creamy, stir in the sautéed lobster, Parmesan cheese, and parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

Cheese Crisps Preparation

5

Make Cheese Crisps

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon small mounds of Parmesan cheese onto the sheet and flatten slightly. Bake for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Let cool before serving.
