Method
Method
- Mix the mayo, crème fraîche, Dijon, lemon zest and juice, chives, celery, spring onion and Old Bay. Fold through the lobster gently, season with salt and pepper, then chill for 10–15 minutes.
- Mix the softened butter with a little garlic powder and salt. Split the brioche rolls, butter generously and toast cut-side down in a hot pan until deeply golden.
Load each warm roll generously with the cold lobster mixture. Spoon caviar over the top and finish with a few chives and a tiny squeeze of lemon.
Serving suggestion:
These lobster rolls are made for long, relaxed summer lunches when you want something that feels indulgent without spending hours in the kitchen. Serve with a crisp green salad, chilled sparkling water or a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, and enjoy outdoors with friends as an easy entertaining option that still feels special.
For a coastal-inspired weekend meal, pair with kettle-cooked potato chips, corn on the cob and plenty of lemon wedges. The combination of buttery brioche, cool lobster filling and fresh herbs makes this a simple yet elevated dish for celebrations, beach gatherings or casual date nights at home.
