Boiled Lobster Dinner with Sesame Mayonnaise

This boiled lobster dinner with sesame mayonnaise is a magnificent high-protein meal that celebrates the natural sweetness of fresh seafood. By boiling the lobsters alongside seasonal sweetcorn and vibrant green beans, you create a complete, restaurant-quality feast in one pot. The addition of a savoury, Japanese-inspired dipping sauce provides a sophisticated alternative to traditional melted butter, cutting through the richness of the meat with the nutty depth of toasted sesame oil and soy sauce.

Ideal for a special occasion or an indulgent weekend supper, this dish is surprisingly simple to prepare at home. The recipe focuses on precise timing to ensure the lobster remains tender and juicy rather than tough. Serve the platter in the centre of the table for a social dining experience, perhaps with some lemon wedges on the side to brighten the flavours even further.

Ingredients for Boiled Lobster Dinner with Sesame Mayonnaise

  • 3/4 to 450g trimmed green beans

  • 4 ears shucked corn

  • 4 (1 1/4-to 675g) live lobsters

  • 160ml mayonnaise

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil

How to make Boiled Lobster Dinner with Sesame Mayonnaise

Cook green beans and corn in an 8-to 10-quart pot of salted boiling water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a platter and return water to a boil.

Plunge 2 lobsters headfirst into boiling water and cook, partially covered, over medium-high heat 8 minutes (for 575g lobsters) to 9 minutes (for 675g lobsters) from time they enter water. Transfer with tongs to a colander to drain. Return water to a boil and cook remaining lobsters.

While lobsters cook, whisk together mayonnaise, soy sauce, and sesame oil.

Serve lobsters with green beans, corn, and sesame mayonnaise.
