Chef's Note
A recipe from Chef Luc Arseneault, Auberge de la Petite Baie
In this century-old former customs house situated on the point of Havre-aux-Maisons, Luc Arseneault has concocted for us a savory recipe of fish or seafood and potatoes in pastry, which his regulars always ask for when they stop by the Auberge de la Baie.
Ingredients
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 125 g (4 oz.) potato, diced
- 250 ml (1 cup) flavorful fish stock
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) heavy cream
- 125 g (4 oz.) Scallops, tough outer muscle removed
- 125 g (4 oz.) Northern Shrimp
- 125 g (4 oz.) cooked Lobster meat
- 40 g (3 tbsp.) lobster coral, liver and sac fry
- 25 g (2 tbsp.) beurre manié (half flour, half softened butter)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 250 g (9 oz.) pâte brisée (unbaked pie pastry) with some dry mustard added in
Method
- Cook the potato in the fish stock and cream.
- Add the fresh scallops, then the shrimp and lobster. Simmer everything for 3-4 minutes.
- Mash the creamy parts of the lobster and mix into the sauce. Blend in the beurre manié and allow to thicken.
- Line 4 ramekins with half of the pie pastry. Fill with the seafood mixture, cover with another layer of pastry, brush with cream and place in a preheated 190° C (375° F) for 30-40 minutes. Serve with a nice side salad.
