Description

Mussels are one of the healthiest, easiest fast-food dishes going, and yet they are impressively elegant to serve. Try this exotic Thai green curry, coconut-based broth for a meal that you can have on the table in less than half an hour.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Chicken Broth
  • 1 Tablespoon Thai Green Curry Paste
  • 2 teaspoons Fish Sauce
  • 2 pounds Mussels, Cleaned, With 'beards' Removed
  • 1 cup Coconut Milk (regular Or Light Works)
  • ¼ cups Fresh Cilantro Or Basil, Chopped
  • Basmati Rice, To Serve

Preparation

In a large pot that has a lid (Dutch oven works well), heat the chicken broth to boiling. Add in green curry paste and fish sauce. If you are heat-sensitive, start with 1 teaspoon of the green curry paste, and add more at the end, to taste, if desired.

Add in mussels, stir. Add in coconut milk. Cook until the shells open, 5 to 10 minutes.

Add in chopped cilantro, if desired. (Basil is good too.)

Serve in bowls with lots of broth for each person and pass a bowl of basmati rice on the side.
