3.
Put the lobster (back down, meat up) and wait until the lobster shell turns red and the meat turns white, about 10-20 seconds.

5.
Mix the rice with lobster water into a paste with a blender (if you like the taste, you can beat it into fine grains, similar to rice porridge)

Tips:
Super long-winded:
1. The purpose of using a blender to break up the rice is to make the porridge quickly. If you have plenty of time, you can cook the porridge slowly by yourself, but remember not to put the lobster in too early, because the meat is easy to get old;
2. Why not just put the lobster meat into the porridge and boil it together? Because I was afraid that I couldn't control the time when I cooked it for the first time, I cooked it first, and added ginger, salt, and chopped green onion when cooking, which will make the lobster more delicious;
3. I added porridge to the lobster soup, so it tastes delicious. If you have gout, drink it carefully;
4. In addition to spinach, in fact, vegetables like celery can also be put, just add it according to your own taste.
