This is a recipe I developed from my memories of this dish at an Indiana restaurant. I would order this with Fried Rice and an Egg Roll. I combined several recipes and have experimented to try to replicate the flavor. This is the result, Lobster sauce is a misnomer as there is no lobster in the dish. It is the name for the style of sauce used on the dish.
