Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the mussels
Rinse and scrub the mussels under cold running water to remove any grit or debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.
2. Cook the vegetables
In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the red and yellow bell peppers, snap peas, and bamboo shoots. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
3. Add the curry base
Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine. Add the fish sauce and lime juice.
4. Add mussels
Add the cleaned mussels to the pot and toss to coat them in the sauce. Add the kaffir lime leaves and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
5. Cook the mussels
Cover the pot and let the mussels steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until they have opened up. Discard any mussels that remain closed.
6. Finish with basil
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the fresh Thai basil leaves. Serve immediately, garnished with additional basil if desired.
