Lobster Pie
- 2-3 fresh lobsters
- Puff paste
- Oysters
- Bread-crumbs
- Slices of butter
- Pepper and salt
Procure two or three fresh lobsters, take out all the meat and cut it in large pieces, put a fine puff paste round the edge of your dish; then put in a layer of lobster and a layer of oysters, with bread-crumbs, slices of butter, and a little pepper and salt; then add another layer of lobster, oysters, etc., till the dish is full. Take the red part of the lobster, pound it fine, with chopped oysters, crumbs of bread, and a small quantity of butter; make the mixture up into small balls, and fry them, and then lay them on the top of your pie. Make some gravy with the oyster liquor, and a little pepper and salt; strain it through a sieve, fill your pie with it, then lay on your crust, and send it to the oven.
