Mussels with Ginger & Shallots


Description

Very simple recipe for mussels.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds fresh mussels
1 tbsp butter
4 diced shallots
Julienned fresh ginger, I used about a 2 inch piece but I love ginger with seafood.
1/2 tsp salt,
2 cups of water
Handful of chopped flat leaf parsley.

Directions

1. Melt butter in pan, add ginger, shallots and salt.

2. When the shallots have softened add water and bring to a boil.

3. When the water has started to boil add parsley and mussels. Cook covered until done. For done I only cook them until just after they have opened. It is best to use a see thru lid.

You could use wine or a mix of wine and water but I would boil it to cook out most of the alcohol.

Enjoy!
