    Lobster Ravioli in Broth

    2 pound steamed lobster, shelled, coral and shells reserved separately
    10 C. water
    3 medium leeks, white and tender green, thinly sliced
    2 carrots, coarsely chopped
    1 celery rib, thickly sliced
    10 parsley stems
    2 garlic cloves, crushed
    Salt and freshly ground pepper
    1 C. thinly sliced Napa cabbage
    24 heart-shaped lobster ravioli (see Note)
    1 T. snipped chives

    Cut the lobster tail and claw meat into 1-inch pieces;
    refrigerate. Coarsely chop the shells.

    In a large saucepan, combine the shells with the
    water, leeks, carrots, celery, parsley, garlic, 1 teaspoon of
    salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Bring to a boil, then
    simmer over moderate heat until reduced to 3 cups, about
    40 minutes.

    Strain the lobster broth into a medium saucepan. Add
    the Napa cabbage and lobster meat and bring to a boil.
    Simmer over moderately low heat until the cabbage is
    tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lobster coral and
    season with salt and pepper.

    Meanwhile, cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling
    salted water until al dente, about 10 minutes; drain. Arrange
    the ravioli in soup plates and ladle the lobster and cabbage
    broth on top. Sprinkle with chives and serve.
    Makes 6 servings.
