SANDRA'S SHANGHAI LOBSTER
Steps:
- Fill a pot large enough to hold the lobster tails with water. Add the salt, pepper, celery, onion and thyme, and bring to a boil. Add the lobster tails. When the pot returns to a boil, remove the tails and set them aside. They will not be fully cooked but will finish cooking in the sauce.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until soft. Add the wine and cook until it is reduced by half. Add the garlic, ginger, curry powder and red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute. Add the clam juice and cook until it is reduced by half, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the coconut milk, cream and soy sauce, and then bring to a simmer. Add the lobster tails to the pan. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the lobster; set aside and keep warm. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook until the liquid is thickened and reduced by half, 6 to 8 minutes. Taste, and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- To serve, put a pile of jasmine rice onto a plate. Nestle a lobster tail next to the rice. Pour over some sauce and garnish with the Crispy Fried Spinach.
- In a deep fryer or a Dutch oven filled about halfway with oil over medium-high heat, bring the oil to 375 degrees F.
- While the oil is heating, look through the spinach leaves and pick off any tough stems. Gently drop a small handful of leaves into the hot oil. Be careful as the oil will splatter. Cook for about 30 seconds, turning once, and remove leaves to paper towel lined plates to drain. Season with salt. Serve as soon as possible.
CRISPY ZUCCHINI OR PUMPKIN BLOSSOMS
My Italian grandmother makes these every year when the zucchini in her garden start to blossom. She is Sicilian and calls them 'cripelli.' It's sort of like a fritter and so yummy. As an alternative, you could also chop up the blossoms and mix them up in the batter and drop by teaspoons into the hot oil.

PEACH BLOSSOMS
these are very moist and munchy, and I have to thank my friend Tina for this recipe. She told me the "secrets" about making good Peach blossoms. Bit strange, not a peach in site :) These will last for days in the fridge, without going gooey or hard. Dont put the cream in until you are ready to serve. Mock cream is the better choice if you have to travel. I make my cupcakes with cheap yellow cake mix, but you can use any recipe you like for them. (Zaar wouldn't let me say that in the ingredients)

Steps:
- make up the cupcake mix.
- cook in either muffin pans, or tart pans. (the tart pans will give you more "rounded" peach blossoms). Dont use paper liners, just spray with Non-stick spray.
- when cool, freeze the cupcakes.
- make up the 2 packs of Jelly using 2 cups of boiling water. Use a jug to do this, as it makes it easier to "dip" the cakes.
- put in the fridge, ( stir every 10-15 mins) and when it is the consistency of egg whites, your ready to BLOSSOM.
- Put the coconut in a baking tray, take out the frozen cakes.
- using a fork, dip the frozen cupcakes in the jelly, let the excess drip off, and then roll in coconut.
- keep in the fridge, and when ready to serve, make a slice in the blossom, and pipe in whipped cream or mock cream.
- put a tiny bit of raspberry jam on the cream.
- serve with pride!

- Tip: prepare the sauce first so you don't have to scramble to add each ingredient separately while the clams are cooking (oyster sayce, soy sauce, Chinese rice wine, chicken stock granules, brown sugar and 1/2 cup of water). Keep the other 1/4 cup of water mixed with cornstarch handy as well.
- Heat up cooking oil over medium-high heat in a wok or large frying pan. Stir-fry the lemongrass until the edges start to brown just a little.

- Prep the clams: Rinse the clams thoroughly under cold water. Discard any cracked or open shells. Soak in cold water for 10 to 20 minutes if they are sandy. Meanwhile, smack the scallions and ginger with the flat side of a cleaver to bruise.
- Fill a large saucepan with enough water to come 1/2 inch (12 mm) up the side of the pan. Add the bruised scallions and ginger and the wine, and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the clams, then cover and cook until all the clams are opened, about 3 minutes. Remove the steamed clams with a slotted spoon and set aside in a bowl. Discard any clams that are not open.
- Fry the clams: Heat a well-seasoned wok or large skillet over medium-high. Add the oil and swirl the wok to distribute it. Add the minced garlic, ginger and the white and light green parts of the scallions and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce with the sugar. Add the clams to the wok, immediately pour in the soy sauce mixture, then turn off the heat. The soy sauce mixture will bubble and caramelize, becoming thick and aromatic. Toss the clams to coat with the sauce. Transfer the clams to a large serving plate, making sure to pour any remaining sauce over them.
