First make the chutney. Heat a little olive oil in a saucepan, add the shallots and garlic and fry gently for 3 to 4 minutes until soft. Turn up the heat, add the remaining ingredients and cook for 5 minutes until thickened. Remove from the heat and leave to cool. Put the egg yolks, mustard, garlic and basil into a food processor and blitz until smooth. With the motor still running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream until the mixture is thick. Add the lemon juice, blitz again and season to taste. Preheat the oil for deep frying to 180°C.
Sift the flour into a bowl, stir through the yeast and salt then gradually whisk in the beer to make a smooth batter. Dust the squid rings in flour, dip in batter then carefully lower into the oil and fry for 2 to 3 minutes until golden and crisp. Drain on kitchen paper and season with sea salt. Meanwhile blanch the lobster tail for 2 to 3 minutes in a large pan of salted boiling water then drain Heat a little oil in a frying pan, add the chorizo and fry gently for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a baking tray and keep warm.
