Adaptation of a BBC recipe I found. Morton Bay bugs are probably only available in Australia but small lobster tails would also be suitable (or one large lobster tail).

SERVES 1 , 3 bugs (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Blanch bugs in a small pot of water containing the teaspoon of salt for around two minutes.
  2. 2
    Remove the tails ny tearing from the body as close as possible to the head without bringing any organs along.
  3. 3
    Run a knife down the length of the belly of the tail and remove the thin sections to either side.
  4. 4
    Melt butter by microwaving in a cup for 30 seconds or so.
  5. 5
    Add parsley, chilli sauce, crushed garlic, chilli flakes and pepper and mix well.
  6. 6
    Fill bug tails with plenty of the mixture.
  7. 7
    Place tails shell side down over BBQ grill plate and cook around 10 minutes over medium heat.
