Appetizers
Lobster Boats
4-5 ounces lobster
meat, chopped fine
1/2 cup fresh mushrooms, chopped fine
2 each scallions, minced (white to light green sections)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1/4 cup dry curd cottage cheese, drained
1 each egg, beaten with fork
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
20 each large fresh Chinese peapods
2/3 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
2 Tablespoons Sherry (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix lobster, mushrooms and scallions in small bowl. In
medium bowl mix Parmesan cheese, cottage cheese, beaten
egg, white pepper and cayenne pepper well, with fork. Add
lobster mixture and mix well again. Set aside.
Wash peapods, removing any strings on ends by hand. With
sharp pointed paring knife, blade facing outward, insert
tip 1/8” from end of curved side of pod and pull it
through to other end, being careful to keep edge straight.
This will create a little “boat”. When boats are
completed, add them to small microwave safe bowl with 1
cup water covered with plastic wrap, and cook for 1 minute
on HIGH to soften. Remove and drain on paper towels.
While peapods are draining, line one large cookie sheet
with waxed paper or aluminum foil that has been prepared
with cooking spray. With teaspoon form ten discs of the
remaining parmesan cheese spaced evenly apart and about
2-3 inches in diameter. Pat down the shreds to ensure even
thickness. With the flat edge of an egg flipper, carefully
divide the discs in half, just creating a line in the
middle, without displacing cheese. Prepare another cookie
sheet with spray, and space the peapods evenly in rows.
With a teaspoon, fill each peapod carefully opening the
slit sides. Optional: sprinkle sherry evenly over filling.
Put both cookie trays into oven at 35O degrees for 18
minutes. The parmesan discs should be golden, and firm to
the touch. Gently lift the boats to serving platter with
spatula. Then one by one remove parmesan sails and insert
one each into warm filling in peapod. Maybe served warm or
cool
