Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

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

  2. 2

    Cook the Red Curry

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Add Coconut Milk and Curry Paste

    Stir in the coconut milk and red curry paste until well combined. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Add Mussels and Bell Pepper

    Add the cleaned mussels and sliced red bell pepper to the pot. Cover and steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened.

  5. 5

    Finish with Basil

    Remove from heat and stir in the fresh basil leaves. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the steamed mussels in bowls with the curry sauce and toasted garlic bread on the side.
