New England Lobster Roll – Buttered or Mayo-Chilled
An iconic East Coast dish, served two ways: warm with butter or chilled with creamy mayo. Perfectly sweet, tender lobster in a soft split-top bun.
Ingredients (Serves 4):
* 500g cooked lobster meat (claw and tail)
* 4 New England-style split-top hot dog buns
* 4 tbsp butter (for toasting)
* 2 tbsp mayonnaise (if making chilled version)
* 1 tbsp lemon juice
* 1 tbsp chopped chives or parsley
* Salt, pepper
Instructions:
1. For the warm version: melt butter, toss lobster meat lightly in butter.
2. For the chilled version: mix lobster with mayo, lemon juice, herbs, salt & pepper.
3. Toast buns in butter until golden.
4. Fill buns with lobster mix. Serve immediately with chips or pickles.
American Tip:
Mix both versions at your next gathering—let guests choose buttery warmth or creamy chill for the ultimate taste battle.
