Spicy Garlic Mussels postA popular dish that has risen from its previous status as the poor man’s shellfish, this recipe for spicy garlic and parsley mussels with white wine is a delicious treat that won’t pinch your pocket.  Serve with warm water and lemon to clean fingers. 

 Serves 4 

Cooking time:  7 mins

What You’ll Need:

  • 15g butter
  •  1 tbsp olive oil
  •  3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  •  2 red chillies, deseeded and diced
  • 1kg fresh mussels, cleaned
  • 150ml white wine
  • 6 tbsp fresh living parsley, chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Crusty bread

What To Do: 

• In a large pan with a tight-fitting lid, heat together the butter and olive oil, add the garlic and chillies and cook for 2 minutes

• Toss in the cleaned mussels and white wine and bring to the boil. Cover the pan tightly and simmer for 5 minutes. The mussel shells should now all be open (discard any mussels that are not open as these will not be good to eat)

• Ladle between 4 warmed dishes, scatter with fresh parsley and ground black pepper, and serve with crusty bread.
