Recipe: Steamed Mussels


This is really easy to make.

Ingredients:
Juice of 1 lime
2 cooked corns, half
bunch of parsley, loosely chopped
2 lbs wild mussels
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoon butter
pinch red pepper flakes
1 cup olives
1 cup Red Wine Vinegar

Rinse the mussels under cold running water while scrubbing with a vegetable brush. Discard any with broken shells.
Heat oil in a stockpot. Saute garlic. Add the mussels and give them a good toss.
Add red wine vinegar, lime juice and pepper flakes. Cover the pot and steam over medium-high 5 minutes until the mussels open.
Toss in parsley, corn and butter and steam for another minute.

Remember, the juice is good for dipping hot garlic bread.

Serves 2
