Mussels in Wine
蒜香白酒煮青口


I love mussels. Come to think of it, I love those with shells, snails (shu-shu) cockers, clams, scallops, crab. The list goes on. I bought a pack of mussels from the supermarket and it’s real cheap. Only S$1.10! None in my family enjoy this. So this all mine! Yummy!

Ingredients:
  • Fresh Mussels (as in not frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic.
  • 2 tablespoon white wine
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • A pinch of salt.
How to do it:
  1. Heat oil in a pan, sauté garlic till fragrant.
  2. Add in mussels and stir-fry till you see they change colour.
  3. Add in cooking wine and simmer till it’s cooked.
  4. Add a pinch of salt.
  5. Dish and serve.
Note:
Like clams, mussels when cooked produce some sauce. Hence water is not required. And there’s a natural sweetness in Mussels so not much seasonings is required.

    Hi Wokking Mum, my hubby love shell seafood especially mussels and clams.

    As you know, shell seafood are all deep inside the sand. How do u get grid of the sandy part? Throw them into a pot of hot water to let them spill out automatically? Hope that u can clear my doubt on this area. Thanks:)
