Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 8 potatoes washed
  • Vegetable oil for deep frying
  • 500 g cooked lobster meat cut into bite sized chunks
  • 1/3 cup whole egg mayonnaise
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 6 sprigs chives finely chopped
  • 10 cornichons sliced
  • pinch of salt
  • 4-6 brioche buns
  • 2 tablespoons butter room temperature
  • micro herbs optional

Instructions
 

  • Cut the potatoes into chip sized batons with a knife or mandolin, transferring to a bowl of cold salted water as you work.
  • Place the cooked lobster meat in a large bowl. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, cornichons, chives and salt. Taste, adjust the seasoning if required. Add to the cooked lobster meat and mix gently to combine.
  • Carefully slice your brioche buns almost in half, stopping about 5 cm from the edge of the roll. Spread the cut sides with butter and toast in a medium frypan over medium heat until nicely browned.
  • Divide the lobster mix between each roll and garnish with micro herbs, if using. Set aside whilst you make the chips.
  • Drain and rinse the potatoes until the water runs clear. Pat dry with towel.
  • Fill a deep fryer with oil and heat to 180C. Fry the potatoes in batches, until golden and crispy. Transfer to a tray lined with paper towel and season with salt.
  • Serve chips immediately with lobster roll.
