  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                        fresh lobster/about 2 1/2 lb
   3      tablespoons   butter
   4      tablespoons   Irish whiskey
 150      milliliter    cream
                        salt and pepper

Preparation:

The lobster should be cut in two down the center. Remove all the meat from the lobster, including the claws: retain the shell for serving. Cut the meat into chunks. Heat the butter until foaming and quickly sauté the lobster chunks in it, until just cooked but not colored. Warm the whiskey slightly, then pour it over the lobster and set fire to it. Add the cream, mix with the pan juices, and taste for seasoning. Put back into the half shells and serve hot.
