Mussels

Yesterday hubby decided to prepare mussels (mosselen) for dinner. It is very easy, a healthy delicacy and not so much time consuming. These on the package below were bought at Dirk van den Broek supermarket. Every month with an "R" in it is a mussels month !


Firstly, wash them well under cold water and throw away the broken or open ones:


He was inspired and fried onions, garlic, leek, red pepper in a special pan:


Then he added the well washed mussels and wine. We did not have fresh herbs at home, so I used coriander seeds instead of its leaves. He cooked it all for a while with the lid covering the pan. You have to shake the pan for acouple of times until you notice the shells are open...


... Ta-da ! Check the result below. Serve with chilled white wine and French fries (patat) or slice a French baguette and serve it with butter or garlic sauce.



L.E.K.K.E.R. !!!!!
