Preparation Instructions
- Rinse 1 kg fresh mussels under cold running water to remove any grit, then use a cutlery knife to scrape off any barnacles.
- Place a large GreenPan casserole over a low heat. Add 15g butter, 1 finely diced onion and 2 finely sliced spring onions; cook, covered, for 10-12 mins until the onions are soft.
- Add 2 crushed garlic cloves and ½ x 15g pack of roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley to the pan. Fry for 2 mins, covered, then add 100ml wine and 100 ml water. Remove the lid, increase the heat to bring to a simmer.
- Add the mussels, cover tightly (to retain the steam), increase the heat to high and cook for 5 mins, shaking the casserole occasionally. Remove the lid on the pan of mussels after the initial 5 mins: if the mussels are all open, they are cooked. If most are still closed, cover and cook for a further 1-2 mins or until opened.
