New Zealand's prized rock lobster, poached and shelled ahead of time, is stirred into a garlicky butter sauce and tossed with spaghetti. Because the lobster meat is already cooked, this premium dish comes together in about 20 minutes.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the pasta

9 min

Boil the spaghetti in salted water for 1 minute less than the packet instructs, reserving a ladle of the cooking water before draining.

2

Make the sauce

3 min

Melt the butter over low heat and sauté the garlic and red pepper flakes for 1 minute, then add the lemon zest and lemon juice and warm for 2 more minutes.

3

Combine with the pasta

2 min

Add the drained pasta to the sauce along with the reserved pasta water and toss for 2 minutes until it comes together.

4

Add the lobster

1 min

Just before taking off the heat, stir in the cooked lobster meat, dill, parsley and salt for 1 minute, then serve hot.

Reminder

Add the cooked lobster to the sauce right at the end, just before taking it off the heat; overcooking turns it rubbery. Remember to reserve a ladle of pasta water, as you'll need it to bring the sauce together. Allergens: contains gluten (pasta) and shellfish (lobster).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If rock lobster isn't available, cooked shrimp works well with the same sauce; shorten the final cooking time by a minute, since shrimp toughens faster.

Kayalık ıstakoz bulamadım, editör notundaki gibi haşlanmış karidesle denedim, tarifte yazan son 1 dakikayı da aynen uyguladım ve gayet iyi oldu. Dondurulmuş ıstakoz etiyle de aynı süre mi geçerli olur yoksa biraz uzatmak mı gerekir?

Karidesle iyi gitmesine sevindim. Dondurulmuş ıstakoz etini tamamen çözüp kurulaması gerekir, öyle kullanırsanız süre yine 1 dakikada kalır; ıslak eklerseniz sos sulanır.
