Lobster Pie Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the filling

   In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and minced garlic and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for another minute.

2. 2

   Add cream and seasonings

   Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and nutmeg. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and fold in the lobster meat and chopped parsley.

3. 3

   Assemble the pie

   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the lobster filling into the crust. Cover with another layer of pie crust or create a lattice top. Seal the edges and brush the top with the beaten egg.

4. 4

   Bake the pie

   Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
