Key Ingredients:

Pasta (spaghetti or linguine)

High-quality butter

Fresh lemons (juice and zest)

Creamy Burrata

Toasted pistachios (for that final touch)

Lobster and Gruyère Tart with Herb Salad

Ingredients:

For the Tart:

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed

1 cup Gruyère cheese, grated

1/2 cup heavy cream

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

8 oz cooked lobster meat, roughly chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Herb Salad:

1 cup mixed fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, dill, and basil), roughly chopped

1/4 cup arugula or baby greens

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Prepare the Tart:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit a tart pan or a baking sheet. Trim any excess pastry.

Prick the bottom of the pastry with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much.

Blind bake the pastry for about 10 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Prepare the Filling:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, eggs, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.

Stir in the grated Gruyère cheese, chopped chives, and parsley.

Assemble the Tart:

Evenly distribute the chopped lobster meat over the partially baked puff pastry.

Pour the cream and cheese mixture over the lobster, spreading it evenly.

Return the tart to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing.

Prepare the Herb Salad:

In a large bowl, combine the mixed fresh herbs and arugula or baby greens.

Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Toss gently to combine.

Serve:

Slice the Lobster and Gruyère Tart and serve warm.

Accompany each slice with a portion of the fresh herb salad on the side.

Tips:

You can use pre-cooked lobster meat to save time. Freshly cooked lobster is also a great option for added flavor.

Adjust the types and amounts of herbs in the salad according to your preference.
