Steamed Garlic Green Lipped Mussels Recipe

You can't get tastier mussels more simple than this, serve them with a little fresh bread to help mop up the juices.

  • 24 fresh live mussles (green lipped)
  • 2 to 3 cloves of garlic crushed
  • 20 grams of butter
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • bunch of chopped fresh flat leaf parlsey

Scrub mussels and remove the beards. Heat the butter in large saucepan add the minced garlic to sizzle for a couple of seconds. Add the wine and mussels, cover for 3 to 4 minutes just until the mussels open. Throw away any mussels that don't open. Toss through freshly chopped parsley. Place on mussels on a large serving platter and pour over cooking liquid.
