How to Make It
1️⃣ Hollow and Toast the Bowl
Cut the top off the brioche roll, keeping the lid intact for serving if desired. Gently scoop out the inside, leaving a thick enough wall to hold the filling without collapsing. Brush the inner surface with melted butter, ensuring it coats the sides and bottom. Broil for 2–3 minutes until the interior turns lightly golden and crisp. This quick toast creates a sturdy base that stays crunchy even once filled with creamy lobster and melted cheese.
2️⃣ Mix the Lobster Filling
In a bowl, combine the chopped lobster meat, mayo, sour cream, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until the ingredients blend into a creamy, cohesive filling. The mixture should be thick enough to mound easily without running, with the garlic and mustard adding depth and brightness to the sweetness of the lobster.
3️⃣ Melt the Cheese Inside the Bowl
Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese directly into the toasted brioche bowl. Return it to the broiler for 1–2 minutes, just until the cheese melts and begins to bubble slightly. This creates a delicious “cheese seal” that enhances flavor and prevents the bread from becoming too soft once filled.
4️⃣ Add Lobster and Top with More Cheese
