Ingredients

Preparation

  • Scrub the Norwegian mussels and check that all the shells are closed. Discard any that you are unsure of.

  • Finely chop the garlic, chili, ginger, lemongrass and shallot, and sauté in a saucepan with butter.

  • Add the mussels and pour in the coconut milk and cream.

  • Cook for 2 minutes or until the shells open. Remove the mussels with a ladle and place them in a bowl.

  • Reduce the stock until it thickens, and strain it. If you have a hand blender, you can whisk the stock until light and airy.

  • Add lime to taste, and sprinkle with a little coriander.

Serve the mussels with the hot stock over, and with bread on the side.
