Lobster Tails

Ask a seafood lover about garlic-buttered lobster tail, and watch their mouth drool as they explain how lip-smacking this delicacy is. The aquatic animal is steamed in a concoction of garlic butter, fresh parsley, and white wine. You can use your Usha’s steam oven to cook the lobster to yield tender and juicy meat. Don’t forget to grease it with garlic butter and garnish with fresh coriander before serving.

Steamed Crabs

Have you ever tried Cajun-style steamed crabs? It is yet another seafood delicacy known for the minimal use of spices to produce a flavourful dish. A mixture of garlic, Cajun seasoning, and butter is prepared, and crabs are steamed with it. When you serve it, make sure to add the leftover blend as the base for spicy and bold crabs.

Steamed Shrimp

If you have purchased shrimp, it is time to learn a Mediterranean recipe. The meat is cooked in a blend of lemon juice, curd, and mustard oil. It is a lightweight dish that is perfect for a busy weekday when you are hungry but don’t want to eat something heavy before retiring to bed. When you make the curd mixture, don’t forget to add oregano for an extra oomph and serve the dish with lemon zest for a zingy flavour.

Steamed Clams

Now that you have learnt Thai, Mediterranean and Indian recipes, it is time to dwell into Portuguese cuisine. To make this, you have to combine cilantro, garlic, butter, and white wine. Thoroughly washed clams are steamed in this mixture to yield a delicacy boasting a rich buttery texture, fresh aroma of herbs, and citric-floral tones of wine.
