Remove the rubber bands from the lobster to avoid plastic taste.

Place the lobster in boiling water for 6 minutes.

After 6 minutes, reduce the heat to simmer to cook the lobster gently.

Prepare the mayonnaise by mixing in a little water sauce and ensuring there are no lumps.

Add radish and fresh ground black pepper to the mayonnaise for spice.

Check the lobster for doneness; it should be slightly detached at the head and tail and not chewy or watery.

Submerge the lobster in cold water to stop the cooking process immediately.

Crack open the lobster shell and remove the meat, drying it with a paper towel to avoid excess water in the mayonnaise.

Chop the lobster meat for the roll.

Add mayonnaise to the chopped lobster and squeeze in lemon juice for acidity.

Incorporate chips for crunchiness, along with tarragon and jalapeno into the mixture.
