 Ingredients
  • 110ml Korean Hot sauce - either grab a bottle or a single serve 110ml sachet 

  • 50 - 75ml fresh cream (adjust to taste)

  • Mussels for 2-3 people (approx. 1kg)

  • Fresh coriander or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish but sooo good)

 

Recipe:
  1. Clean the mussels:

    • Rinse the mussels under cold water.
    • Scrub the shells and remove the beards (the stringy bits hanging out).
    • Check for any open mussels. If they don't close when tapped, discard them - they're not safe to eat.
  2. Cook:

    • Place the cleaned mussels into a large pot with a lid.
    • Add the 110ml sachet of Korean Hot sauce and 50-75ml of cream (depending on how creamy you like it)
    • Don't worry if it looks as if there's not much liquid. The mussels will release their own juices as they cook.
  3. Steam & Serve:

    • Cover the pot with a lid and cook over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes.
    • Shake the pot occasionally to help the mussels cook evenly.
    • Once the mussels have opened, they're ready. Discard any that stay closed.
    • Sprinkle with freshly chopped coriander or parsley if you've got it handy.
    • Serve hot, ideally with crusty bread to soak up all of that delicious sauce.
