Mussels

Method

Preparation

1

Clean the Mussels

Rinse the fresh mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any debris. Remove beards if necessary.

2

Prepare the Leeks

Slice the leeks thinly and rinse them under cold water to remove any grit. Drain well.

3

Cook the Base

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

4

Add Mussels and Coconut Milk

Add the cleaned mussels to the pot along with the coconut milk and Old Bay seasoning. Stir to combine.

5

Steam the Mussels

Cover the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened. Discard any that do not open.

6

Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Serve the mussels with grilled focaccia on the side for dipping.
