Lobster Fritters Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, onions, bell pepper and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, baking powder, paprika and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in the milk and egg until combined and smooth. Fold in the cooled vegetables, lobster meat and parsley.
• Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack. Add enough vegetable oil to come about 3 inches up the side of a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot. Heat over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
• Using a 3-ounce cookie scoop, scoop the fritter batter and gently drop into the hot oil. Fry the fritters in batches until deeply golden brown, a few minutes per batch. Remove to the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with salt while still hot. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• For the pepper jelly: Mix together the apple jelly, green pepper, red pepper, jalapeno, parsley, onion and cilantro in a small bowl. Let set at least 1 hour to infuse the flavors.
• For the fritters: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the lobster and scallops with the olive oil on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 5 minutes to parcook. Chop the lobster and dice the scallops.
• Mix together the all-purpose flour, semolina flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the eggs, green onion, red onion, clam juice, beer, jalapeno, lobster and scallops and mix to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes
• Heat 1 inch of vegetable or canola oil in a frying pan over medium high to about 350 degrees F. Scoop the mixture in 1-tablespoon portions into the frying pan and cook until golden brown, being careful not to overcrowd the pan; carefully turn the fritters if necessary.
• Drain on paper towels and serve with the pepper jelly on the side.

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium heat. Add the scallions and corn and saute for 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the lobster and cook for 1 minute. Set aside.
• Combine the flour, baking powder, paprika, Old Bay seasoning, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center and whisk in the eggs and half-and-half, stirring until the mixture is smooth, like a thick pancake batter. Stir in the corn and lobster mixture. (The batter may be made up to an hour ahead and refrigerated.)
• For the sauce, place the garlic, saffron, sriracha, lemon juice, mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and puree until smooth.
• To make the fritters, heat 2 to 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium to medium-high heat. For each fritter, drop 2 rounded tablespoons of the batter into the hot butter and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and firm to the touch. Don't crowd the skillet or they won't brown evenly. Repeat until all the batter is used, adding butter as necessary. Serve the fritters hot with a dollop of sauce on the side.
