Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Drizzle oil into a large pot of boiling salted water. Add the pasta and cook according to the directions on the package, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well.
- Meanwhile, heat the milk in a small saucepan, but don't boil it. In a large pot, melt 6 tablespoons of butter and add the flour. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring with a whisk. Still whisking, add the hot milk and cook for a minute or two more, until thickened and smooth. Off the heat, add the Gruyere, Cheddar, 1 tablespoon salt, the pepper, and nutmeg. Add the cooked macaroni and lobster and stir well. Place the mixture in 6 to 8 individual gratin dishes.
- Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, combine them with the fresh bread crumbs, and sprinkle on the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the macaroni is browned on the top.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the macaroni according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the flour and cook until bubbling, about 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and 2 teaspoons salt and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce to medium heat and cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened and the flour taste is gone, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the Parmesan and mascarpone until melted and smooth. Fold in the macaroni, lobster and chopped tarragon.
- Put the Muenster and Gruyere in a large bowl. Add the macaroni mixture and fold until just combined. Spread the mixture evenly over a quarter baking sheet and freeze until just solid, about 1 hour.
- Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes: Mix 1 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1 cup flour in the first dish. Beat the eggs and 1 teaspoon salt in the second dish and add the breadcrumbs and 1 teaspoon salt to the third dish.
- Cut the chilled macaroni mixture into 1-inch squares with a paring knife. Coat each square in the flour, then dip in the egg, letting any excess drip off. Press into the breadcrumbs and transfer to a baking sheet. Freeze for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with 2 inches of oil and set over medium-high heat. Heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Fry the breaded macaroni squares in batches until golden brown on the outside and hot in the middle, about 2 minutes. Bring the oil temperature back up between batches.
- After the last batch, bring the oil temperature back up again. Add the tarragon leaves, parsley and chives in 1/4-cup batches to the hot oil and fry until the water is released and the herbs are no longer bubbling, about 30 seconds. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
- Put the lemon zest and remaining 8 tablespoons butter in a small saute pan and heat until melted and foamy.
- Drizzle the mac and cheese squares with the lemon butter and sprinkle with the fried herbs. Serve with lemon wedges.
FRIED LOBSTER MAC AND CHEESE
This combination of mac and cheese with lobster is a great idea. Then to fry it on top of that? Oh my - it's divine! The white cheddar and the Gruyere cheese pair well together. The Panko crumbs add a nice crunchiness, while the cayenne adds a touch of heat. This is one great tasting dish!

Steps:
- Fill a pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the macaroni is cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 7 minutes. Drain. Stir in the 2 tablespoons butter, the 1/4 cup milk, and the cheese packet from the package.
- While the macaroni is still hot, stir in the Cheddar cheese, pimento cheese spread, and Italian cheese blend, and continue to stir until melted. Place the macaroni and cheese mixture in a container and refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove the macaroni mixture from the refrigerator, and, using a cookie scoop, scoop into balls. Place mac balls on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for at least 2 hours.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Whisk the bread crumbs with the paprika, chili powder, black pepper, sugar, and cayenne in a shallow dish; set aside. Beat the eggs with the 3 tablespoons milk in a small bowl. Remove the mac balls from the freezer, coat in the egg wash, and then dredge in breading.
- Fry the mac balls in small batches until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain briefly on a paper towel-lined plate; serve hot.

LOBSTER MAC AND CHEESE
Steps:
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Reserve about 2 cups of the hot pasta water, then drain the pasta in a colander set in the sink, and rinse with cold water to cool. Set aside.
- Return the pasta water to the large pot, and place the lobster halves in the pot, cut-side up. Return the water to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and steam the lobster just until the meat firms and turns opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove the lobster and allow to cool for a few minutes, then remove the meat and cut into bite sized pieces. Reserve the shells.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes; scrape the onions into a small bowl and set aside. Place the reserved lobster shells, garlic, shallots, peppercorns, and milk into the saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, and cook for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Melt 5 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in the flour, and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Strain the milk through a mesh sieve. Gradually whisk the milk into the flour mixture, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture is thick and smooth, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir the Gruyere, Cheddar, and Romano cheeses into the thickened milk mixture until melted and smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then stir in the reserved lobster, onions, and macaroni. Pour the macaroni into a 4 quart casserole and smooth the top. Sprinkle evenly with the panko crumbs.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the sauce is bubbly, and the top is golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes.
