Lobster Recipe: Mango and Lobster Salad

Mango and Lobster SaladAs Cynthia of Tastes Like Home puts it: "Separately (mango & lobster), they are heavenly. Combined? They are sinfully good."

She was spot on.

Mango and Lobster SaladThis mango and lobster salad was refreshing, light, and mangolicious. For me, the ideal ratio is approximately 1.5 mango: 1 lobster to get that perfect and harmony balance. Plus, mangoes are just too good, so the more the merrier.

Bon appetit!

Recipe: Mango and Lobster Salad

Ingredients:

2 lobster claws
2 ripe and big mangoes
1 cup cream
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Some sweet basil leaves (chopped)

Method:

Boil the lobster claws in hot water for 10-15 minutes or until cooked. Remove from shell and cut the lobster claws into small pieces. Peel, slice and remove the seed from the mangoes. Cut the mangoes into small cubes. Put the mangoes and lobsters in a bowl. Add in the cream, lemon juice, honey, and chopped sweet basil. Mix well, cover, and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving.

I've never tried that combination but it certainly does sound delicious. Lobsters and mangoes are so expensive here.

What a delicious flavor combination! And I've missed you so much. During my move, I didn't have a lot of time to read my necessary food blogs, but I do now. I am catching up on your sinful and heavenly posts!

 

Blogger Cynthia said ... (5:23 PM) : 

You had me rolling with laughter (lol). Now, if only I can have some, all my troubles will go away, if only momentarily as I savour the flavours.

 

Blogger Rasa Malaysia said ... (8:37 PM) : 

Claude - I have posted more pictures and recipe, have you checked it out?

Rayc22 - Thanks. :)

Budding Cook - Thanks! Have you stocked up on your mangoes? ;)

Cynthia - I love your comment, so much so that I had to use it as the opening of my post. LOL!

New kid on the blog - I hope to return to Penang one day and open a restaurant. Thanks so much for your nice word. :) :)

Barbara - I only bought lobster and mangoes because they were on sale. Yeah, they are great combinations together.

Yoyo's Food - 谢谢。真的好好吃。

Joey - thanks. Can you get lobsters easily in Manila?

Dee - I am glad that you love the chicken rice without claypot. You should try out this mango and lobster recipe, too. :)

Piggy - Yum it was. The next day, I made more of this but used shrimp because I ran out of lobsters.

Tiga - quick quick go catch one in the market and have them cleaned and cut it up for you. Do they have sales up there?

Mandy - let's trade? I want your baked goods and I can give you some of my lobster salad. Hehe.

Brilynn - ambrosia, yes. Hehe. :)

Meiyen - I made 3 dishes with my lobster...haha. This is great for lunch indeed and I had them for lunch. :)

Ee Chian - betul ke? Just by popping by you get high cholesterol? Haha. My cholesterol level is actually perfect and very healthy, despite my seafood-laden meals. Actually some other meat dishes or organs have a lot more cholesterol than seafood. ;)

Lemongrass - thanks. :)

Andaliman - haha, drooling? Likewise when I look at your delicious Indonesian dishes...yum.

PE - hey, welcome back to blogoshere. I have missed you too. I look forward to your adventure in the Big Easy...by the way, about humidity, you will get use to it...actually humidity is supposed to be better for the skin, make it more dewey, hehe.

Cynthia - haha...do me a favor, just leave me comments and I shall use your comment as my opening paragraph for every post...that would save me some time thinking up how to start a post. I just don't like writing, I just want to share my pictures and recipe...LOL.

Blogger team bsg said ... (9:54 PM) :

( yes man does go )

 

Blogger Lia said ... (1:20 AM) : 

beautiful, looks very refreshing!

 

Blogger "Joe" who is constantly craving said ... (6:33 AM) : 

omg..that looks so good!!..just had lobster with linguine..but must say a 1kg lobster (the kind with the claws) is pretty meatless to say the least..and cause a hole in the pockets too!

 

Blogger Maryann said ... (6:55 AM) :

It will take double the recipe to satisfy my appetite.
