/2 Cup Chopped parsley  
Cup Cr me Fraiche  
Hard boiled eggs; finely chopped  
Tablespoon Finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  
In a mixing bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs and butter,  
blend thoroughly. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9−inch springform  
pan.  
In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the  
onions and the peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes,  
remove from the heat. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until  
smooth. With the machine running, add the eggs, one at a time, until  
incorporated. Beat in the cream, Gouda cheese and sauteed vegetables until  
fully incorporated, about 2 minutes. Fold in the lobster meat and the  
parsley. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and bake until firm, about  
1
hour. Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature. If you  
refrigerate the cake before serving, allow to come to room temperature  
before serving.  
To serve, cut the cake into wedges with a warm knife. Serve each wedge with  
the Cr me Fraiche, traditional garnishes and caviar.
