- ⅓ cup butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1½ cups half and half cream
- 3 egg yolks, beaten
- 1 cup cooked lobster meat, cubed
- 3-4 tablespoons dry white wine
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- salt, as desired
- paprika, for garnish
- 4 Toast Rings, Link in Notes
Melt the butter in a large non stick pan, stir in the flour until smooth. Slowly stir in cream, stir until sauce is thickened.
Beat the egg yolks, scoop a little of the sauce and mix into the egg yolks, then pour all the yolks into the sauce. Stir continuously until mixed in and thickened.
Add the lobster and stir in, then stir in the wine and lemon juice. Heat through.
Taste, season with salt as needed. Sprinkle with paprika as desired, for garnish, and serve right from the pan.
Spoon over Toast Rings, enjoy.
Low cost per serving as only 1 cup of lobster is needed. I will research making this with slipper lobster and mantis shrimp.
