INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven 375 degrees F. Oil 12 (4-ounce) ring molds.  In a food
processor, fitted with a metal blade, combine the fish, egg  whites,
Cognac, chives, shallots, lemon juice and nutmeg. Puree until  smooth.
Add enough cream so the mixture is smooth but slightly thick. Season
with salt and pepper.  To test the seasoning, bring a small pot of
water to a simmer. Add a  teaspoon of the mouse to the water and poach
for about 2 minutes.  Remove and taste. Adjust the seasoning according
to taste.  Fill each mold with the fish mixture.  Place the molds in a
baking dish and fill with water, enough to come  up 1-inch of the mold.
Place in the oven and cook for about 12 to 15  minutes or until firm.
Remove from the oven and cool completely.  Refrigerate until chilled.
Slice the lobster tails, 1//4-inch thick. In a mixing bowl, combine
the lobster, peas, and carrots. Toss with a drizzle of truffle oil.
Season with salt and pepper. Add the chervil and toss well.  To serve,
unmold the mousse and place in the center of each plate.  Fill the
center of each mousse with the lobster salad. Garnish with  parsley.
