Ingredients:

  • 4-6 frozen lobster cakes (approx. 3 oz / 85g each)
  • 1 tbsp melted butter or olive oil spray
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
  • 1/4 cup tartar sauce or remoulade

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3 minutes to ensure the cakes sear immediately.
  2. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil or brush with melted butter to prevent sticking.
  3. Place the frozen lobster cakes in a single layer in the basket, ensuring they do not overlap to allow for maximum airflow.
  4. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 5–6 minutes.
  5. Carefully flip each cake using tongs.
  6. Cook for another 4–5 minutes until the cakes reach a deep mahogany-gold color and feel firm to the touch.
  7. Let the cakes rest in the basket for 1–2 minutes to allow internal juices to redistribute.
  8. Move to a plate and immediately squeeze a fresh lemon wedge over the top.
