Instructions

Prepare the lobsters by splitting them in half lengthwise. Clean out the tomalley and other organs. Cut the lobster meat into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the lobster pieces to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to turn pink.
Stir in the scallions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the lobster is fully cooked and coated in the sauce.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can add the cornstarch mixture to the wok and stir until the sauce thickens.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the twin lobster with ginger and scallion hot, garnished with additional sliced scallions if desired. Enjoy!
