Instructions
- Peel the cooked lobster tails and cut the meat into bite-sized pieces. Keep them cool.
- Peel the onion and slice it very finely. Soak it for 5 minutes in cold water to mellow its flavour.
- Trim the celery, remove the strings and cut it into small, even cubes.
- In a salad bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the lime juice, the chopped chilli, a little salt and pepper.
- Add the lobster meat, the celery, the drained onion and the snipped chives. Mix gently so the pieces don't break.
- Let it rest for 15 minutes in the fridge so the flavours blend.
- Arrange on a bed of lettuce and garnish with tomato wedges and a pinch of paprika. Serve with the toast.
Variations and tips
Budget version. Replace the lobster with cooked crab or shrimp, which are more affordable.
