Ingredients
- 1 pint milk
- 1 tablespoonful cream
- 1 medium-sized lobster
Directions
1 medium-sized lobster.
1 oz. butter.
1 oz. flour.

Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the flour, stir in the milk, and cook till stiff. Chop the lobster finely, put it in basin with the cream and seasonings ; rub the spawn through a sieve ; add it or cochineal to make it bright pink • mix the binding mixture, and turn out on a plate to cool. Cut or mould into cutlet shapes on a board, egg and bread crumb, and fry in smoking fat till brown ; put a small claw of lobster into the end of each before serving. Tinned lobster makes these very nicely.
