Boiled lobster tails

  1. Fill a large saucepan with water and add 1 teaspoon of salt.
  2. Bring the water to the boil and drop the lobster tails into the pan.
  3. Boil the tails for about 1 minute per oz of total weight. If there are 5 oz of lobster tails, you will need to cook them for 5 minutes.
 

Steamed lobster tails

  1. Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of a pan and add salt.
  2. Bring the water to the boil.
  3. Insert a wooden skewer or cocktail stick down the length of each lobster tail. This will prevent them from curling up upon steaming.

  5. Steam the tails for about 7 or 8 minutes, drain and serve hot.
