Cook lobster in a pot with water, onion, orange, black pepper, white wine, and carrots for 6 minutes.

Remove the lobster from the pot and clean it, discarding the shell.

Slice turnip very thinly using a mandoline to create turnip 'pasta'.

Brush the turnip slices with a vinaigrette made from grapeseed oil and red wine vinegar.

Dice the lobster meat into small pieces, separating the claws and tails.

Mix the diced lobster with mayonnaise, grapeseed oil, black pepper, and a touch of red wine vinegar.

Layer a slice of turnip with a piece of lobster, and brush the lobster tail with vinaigrette.

Season the turnip with nutmeg and add additional diced lobster on top.

Finish with rosemary, chives, and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
