Flour, for dredging
1/3 cup(s) Vegetable oil
1/2 cup(s) Extra-virgin olive oil
2 cup(s) Onions, diced 1/4-inch
6 tablespoon(s) Tomato paste
1/2 cup(s) Red wine vinegar
3 cup(s) Hot water
1 quart(s) Italian tomatoes, canned, peeled

Instructions:
1. Rinse out lobster bodies completely, leaving shells intact. Lightly coat exposed meat of lobster tails with flour, shaking off excess. Heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add lobster tails to hot oil, meat-side-down. Cook until golden brown, for about 2 minutes, shaking the skillet occasionally. Remove and reserve.
2. Heat ; cup of the olive oil in a large, wide saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft, 3-4 min. Add lobster body pieces and cook, stirring, until they turn bright red, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato paste and cook for another 5 minutes.
3. Combine vinegar with hot water, add to pan, and bring to a boil. Add tomatoes, parsley, and salt to taste, bring to a boil, and cook for another 3 minutes. Season with crushed pepper.
4. Remove and discard body pieces, allowing all the juices to drain back into the sauce. Add claws to pan and cook for 7 minutes.
5. Add reserved lobster tails and remaining olive oil. Simmer until tails are cooked, about 3 to 5 minutes, skimming if necessary.
6. Remove claws and tails and keep warm. Bring sauce to a boil and cook until slightly thickened. While sauce cooks, cook spaghetti in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain.
7. Toss pasta with half of sauce. Place pasta on a platter and surround with lobster. Pour remaining sauce over lobster and serve.
