Lobster Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Idaho potatoes
- 1/4 pound bacon, diced
- 2 lobster tails (8 ounces each), finely diced
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh chives
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup butter
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
Scrub potatoes and place in a large pot. Add enough salted water to cover by at least 1 inch. Simmer, uncovered, over moderate heat until an inserted knife comes away easily, about 20 to 30 minutes. Drain and cool to handle.
While potatoes are cooling, cook bacon until crisp in a large saute pan over medium high heat. Add lobster. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes or until lobster is cooked through. Stir in chives. Remove from heat and reserve.
Bring milk to a boil. Remove from heat and reserve.
Peel potatoes. Pass potatoes through the finest grid of a food mill into a mixing bowl. Slowly stir in heated milk and butter. Fold in lobster mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
