Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine all of the spices. Transfer to a sealed container and store for up to 1 month.
• Bahamian Curry Sauce:
• For Bahamian Curry Sauce:
• Heat the oil in a medium Dutch oven over high heat. Add the onions and ginger and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the Mesa Curry Mix and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add the white wine and cook until reduced by half. Add the lobster stock and coconut milk and cook until reduced by half, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. *Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Strain into a small saucepan and cook to a sauce consistency. Season with honey, salt and pepper, to taste, and fold in the cilantro. Keep warm.
• *When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.
• For Spiny Lobsters:
• Preheat the grill to high.
• In a pot fitted with a steamer insert, steam the lobster tails until just beginning to become opaque. Remove the tails from the steamer, brush with the oil and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Place 2 skewers, lengthwise, into each tail so the tails will lie flat on the grill. Grill flesh side down for about 10 minutes or until marked and just cooked through. Serve with the Curry Sauce.

Steps:

• Stick a 6 inch skewer lengthwise inside the tail of each lobster. Bring the court bouillon to a boil, add the lobsters, and cook for about 6 minutes. Remove and shock in ice water.
• Remove the tail meat from the shells and cut each into 2 to 3 medallions. Set aside.
• Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the oil and garlic, and heat until the garlic starts to turn golden. Discard the garlic. Toss in the fresh tomatoes, add salt to release any water, and let cook about 10 minutes. Add the lobster stock and reduce to desired consistency, about 15 minutes. Add the crushed red pepper and black pepper, to taste, and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the lobster medallions and chopped parsley and cook for 2 minutes. Toss in the noodles, cook for 1 minute to warm, and serve immediately. BUON APPETITTO!!!!
