Lobster Tots

Method

Lobster Tots

  1. 1

    Prepare Potatoes

    In a large pot, boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and allow them to cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mash Potatoes

    In a mixing bowl, mash the boiled potatoes until smooth. Allow to cool for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Mix Ingredients

    Add the chopped lobster meat, flour, cornstarch, beaten egg, green onions, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix until combined.

  4. 4

    Form Tots

    Using your hands, form the mixture into small, tot-shaped bites, about 1.5 inches long.

  5. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.

  6. 6

    Fry Tots

    Fry the lobster tots in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on a paper towel.

Ginger Sauce

  1. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine the grated ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and chili flakes.

  2. 8

    Mix Well

    Whisk together until all ingredients are well combined and the sauce is smooth.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Serve the ginger sauce alongside the lobster tots for dipping.
