Cook the lobsters in a court stock for 8 minutes and allow to
cool off. Or buy freshly cooked lobster, but especially not a
frozen product. That is incredibly chewy and tasteless.
Chop shallots, carrots, garlic and celery in fine brunoise. Peel
the tomatoes, get rid of seeds and cut into cubes. Chop the
tarragon and the parsley.
Stew the shallot, carrots, celery, half of the chopped parsley,
half of the tomato cubes and crushed garlic in butter.
