For the garlic sauce (optional)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise Can also use half mayonnaise and half plain yogurt.

Method
 

Preparation

  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the ingredients for the garlic sauce and set aside.
Cooking
  1. Spread softened butter on both sides of the buns and sprinkle with garlic powder.
  2. Toast the buns in a pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and warm.
Assembly
  1. Fill the toasted buns with the lobster salad and serve immediately with the garlic sauce, if made.

Serve with crispy fries or a fresh green salad. Garnish with extra chives and a squeeze of lemon for brightness.
