Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Blanch one of the lobsters for 20 seconds, then immerse it in ice water. Remove the tail and claw meat. Puree the raw meat in a food processor with the scallops, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula. Strain the mixture through a sieve. Add the salt and pepper and the heavy cream, using the on-off method until it is blended. Add the corn, flour and eggs.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, boil the seven remaining lobsters for no more than 10 minutes each. Remove the tail and claw meat. Set aside. (Save the shells for making the crab soup.)

  3. Step 3

    In an 8-inch frying pan, heat two tablespoons of peanut oil. When the oil is sizzling, pour in three tablespoons of batter. Spread quickly to make a 6-inch crepe. Cook three minutes on each side. Using a mold, cut off the ends to make a perfect circle.

  4. Step 4

    Put two crepes on a plate decorated with pieces of the lobster. Place plates in the oven for a few minutes. Serve with a few tablespoons of dill butter.
