Sautéed Lobster Tail
Sautéed Lobster Tail with Lobster Bisque and Chive Oil
Gordon Ramsay demonstrated the cooking of this dish as follows:
"The second appetizer is sauteed lobster tail in truffle butter, served with lobster bisque, finished with a chive oil. The lobster, first off, it goes into the pan. Tilt the pan, which cooks the back of the lobster. Right. I'm rolling it around inside that butter. Baste, baste, baste. Now let's serve with some little caramelized cipollini, onions and carrots. From there, we're just going to just sit the lobster on top. And the very last moment, we go round with the lobster bisque. Then finally, that beautiful little touch of chive oil that just goes round. And there we have our beautiful truffle butter roasted lobster tail served its own bisque."
Some of the problems from both team in this challenge, with this dish, were:
undercooked lobster (over and over again)
timing of the dish
too much chive oil
forgetting the chive oil
