  • 8 cups of your favorite tomato/pasta sauce (Rao’s Homemade is great)
  • 2 tablespoon minced garlic

  5. In a large nonstick pan add 1 tablespoon olive oil and add your garlic and parsley. Stir until fragrant and add your tomato sauce.
  6. Add your lobster to the sauce and cook for 2 minutes and coat the lobster in the sauce on high heat.
  7. Remove the lobster and set aside. Leave the pasta sauce in the pan.
  8. Add capers, tuna, and olives to the sauce and cook for 3 minutes to release the flavors.

Method:

1. Prepare the broth by heating a large stock pot to high heat and adding soybean oil in it. Toss the red and green onions to brown.
2. While the onions are browning, chop and mince the scallops to a very fine mince. Place the scallops in a large mixing bowl with ground pork.
3. In a food processor, pulse the diced lobster with 3 eggs, and 5-6 dried shrimps that have been soaked in water.
4. Pulse into a paste and add into the bowl with scallops and pork. Add a full jar of crab paste, the fish sauce, water. white pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
5. Once the onions are brown, add the remaining dried shrimps that are in the water into the pot along with the water the dried shrimp has been soaking in.
6. Add 3 cut tomatoes into the soup, coriander seeds, cilantro and cover.
7. Once the broth comes to a boil remove lid and add your jar of tomato paste and crab paste. Add fish sauce and sugar as well.
8. Once the broth is boiling, add the crab pork mixture (free formed in different sizes) using a spatula or spoon.
9. Let it boil and cook slowly. Once they start floating to the top you can turn the heat to medium or low and let it just simmer in the broth.
10. After you let it simmer for 15-20 minutes with the crab mixture, you can turn the heat off and squeeze the 2 lemon wedges in (optional). I like adding this at the end to give it a fresh citrus pop to the soup.
11. To assemble add the freshly boiled noodles, drained and placed in the middle of the bowl.
12. Top the noodles with the crab (2-3 pieces) then ladle soup into the bowl until the soup is just a little over 1/2 the way of the bowl.
13. Garnish with shredded lettuce, mint leaves, Thai basil, jalapeño slices and lemon and serve! Serve with Siracha sauce for an extra kick for those who like it spicy.
