Crab Cakes

Andouille Grits

Lobster Cream

Poached Eggs

Method

Crab Cakes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, chopped green onions, and the egg. Gently fold together until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Add breadcrumbs to the crab mixture, mixing gently until just combined. Form the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes per side until they are golden brown. Remove from skillet and keep warm.

Andouille Grits

  1. 4

    Cook the Grits

    In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add the grits and salt, reduce the heat, and cook according to package instructions, stirring occasionally.

  2. 5

    Add Sausage and Cream

    Stir in the diced Andouille sausage and heavy cream once the grits are thick and creamy. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 6

    Finish with Cheese

    Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Season with black pepper to taste.

Lobster Cream

  1. 7

    Sauté Garlic

    In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 8

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Add the heavy cream and lobster meat to the pan. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer. Season with lemon juice, salt, and black pepper, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Poached Eggs

  1. 9

    Prepare the Poaching Water

    In a large pot, bring water to a simmer and add white vinegar.

  2. 10

    Poach the Eggs

    Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide into the simmering water. Poach for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
