Mussels and Sauce

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

    Rinse the mussels under cold water and scrub the shells to remove any dirt. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Make the Green Curry Cream

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the green curry paste and stir for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add Coconut Milk

    Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine with the curry paste. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Cook the Mussels

    Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover, and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened up.

  5. 5

    Finish the Sauce

    Once the mussels are cooked, stir in the lime juice and half of the chopped cilantro. Season with salt to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the mussels and sauce into bowls, garnish with the remaining cilantro, and serve with warm house roti on the side.
