Lobster
- 2 lbs lobster tails and claws
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp flour
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
- salt & pepper as needed
Ginger Scallion Stir Fry
- 5 slices ginger
- 1 bunch scallions chopped
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp shaoxing wine
- ½ tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp Lee Kum Kee chicken boullion
- 1 tbsp Lee Kum Kee premium oyster sauce
Noodles
- 2 servings egg noodles boiled per package instructions

Steam the lobster
Cut the lobster tails via butterfly cut or simply cut in half lengthwise, then into thirds.
Remove the arms from the claws. Use a shellfish cracker to expose the meat.
Steam the lobster for 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Deep fry the lobster
In a bowl, coat lobster tails in cornstarch, salt, and pepper.
Heat oil in a wok. Use high heat.
Fry the lobsters for 2 min or until crisp and golden. Remove the lobsters and let it dry on a grid rack.
Remove most of the oil to set it aside in a heat-safe container - you may need this for the egg noodles later. Leave about 1 tbsp of oil in the wok.
Stir fry the lobster in ginger scallion sauce
Stir fry the noodles
Add the cooked egg noodles to the wok. The noodles will soak up remaining sauce and oil. Add reserved oil as needed. Cook 3 min until brown.
Transfer noodles to a serving platter, then top it with the lobsters and more scallions.
