Thank goodness for low-carb/keto chaffles because now I can have Lobster Rolls again!! And we’re not talking about our sushi version! We’re talking about creamy lobster sandwiched between warm, toasty, buttered rolls served at restaurants for an arm and an leg!
Now let’s discuss what a chaffle is for those of you not familiar. A chaffle is basically a mixture of egg, cheese, maybe some seasoning mixed together and cooked on a waffle iron. It’s low-carb/keto friendly and serves as a solid bread alternative. This is why I chose to use a chaffle for this lobster roll recipe.
I used frozen Langostino tails that I bought at our local store instead of fresh lobster tails for easy accessibility. Of course, feel free to use fresh or frozen steamed lobsters if you prefer.
And believe it or not, lobster rolls are very easy to prepare and being able to cook one up when the craving hits is really a treat. This is why I recommend frozen langostino tails that are already fully cooked to make it quick and easy!
There’s no need to go to Maine or some fancy seafood restaurant, now you can make delicious low-carb/keto lobster rolls in the comfort of your own home. So what are you waiting for? Go make those lobster rolls!
For this dish, the special ingredient you would need is Kewpie Mayo, which you can get on Amazon or at a local Asian supermarket. You will also need a waffle maker. We use the Dash Mini Waffle Maker because it makes the perfect size waffles, but any waffle maker will do.
Note – If you are preparing multiple servings, we would recommend using 2 Dash Mini Waffle Maker simultaneously to reduce the cooking time.
Now if you’re ready, let’s chaffle!
