Salt
Saffron, optional
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup minced lobster
1/2 cup cream
Buttered toast roundsPreheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine chopped onion, chopped watercress, a dash of paprika, salt, saffron, flour and 1/2 cup cream. Cook, stirring constantly until thickened.
Add 1 cup minced lobster, preferably fresh. Cook very briefly. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Spread on buttered toast rounds. Set in 400 degree oven until slightly browned. Serve hot.
