Dashi Poached Lobster with Tomato and Lobster Coral Jam, Confit Tomatoes, Pickled Green Tomatoes, Chilli Mayonnaise and Grilled Buttermilk and Coriander Oil Flatbread
Mark's fish course pairs a luxurious ingredient with a tried-and-tested classic pairing: lobster and tomato. Lobster tails and claws are poached in dashi, a broth of two seaweeds and dried kombu, to impart flavour into the flesh rather than diluting it. The coral and brains are blended into a slow-cooked tomato and lobster coral jam, developed over two hours for sweetness and depth. Confit mini plum tomatoes and pickled green tomatoes add contrast. Lobster shells are roasted into a chilli-spiced oil for the mayonnaise. A grilled buttermilk and coriander oil flatbread is served alongside for mopping.
