Pitik is how most of us Pinoy call the slipper lobster. Slipper lobster is known as a cheaper alternative to lobster, it is even introduce as a lobster in some eating places or chefs to the not to informed diners. Never the less it is truly a good substitute of the real lobster for most of us who can not afford one.
Here is the recipe of my Slipper Lobster in Coconut Milk with Spinach, Guinataang Pitik with Spinach.
Ingredients:
1 kilo slipper lobster
2 cans (400ml) coconut milk
4 packets or 500grams baby spinach
1/2 head garlic, chopped
1 small size onion, chopped
2-3 thumb size ginger, cut into strips
1 lemongrass, crushed tied into knot
2-3 green chili, chopped
cooking oil
salt
Cooking procedure:
Wash slipper lobsters and drain. Steam slipper lobster for 10 to 15 minutes, cut in half and set aside. In a large pot sauté garlic, ginger and onion. Add the coconut milk, 1/2 cup of water and lemongrass bring it to a boil and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes stirring occasionally or until the liquid is reduced to about 2/3. Add in the green chili, lobster and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Add in the spinach and continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt to taste. Serve with a lot of rice.
