INGREDIENTS

  • 1 kg mussels
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • 1 cup cream
  • smoked paprika, to taste
  • salt and pepper, to taste

METHOD

  1. Heat the butter in a pot over medium heat. Once melted, add in the onions and garlic.
  2. Sauté the onions and garlic until soft.
  3. Increase the heat to high, pouring in the wine. As the wine starts steaming, add your mussels to the pot and cover with a lid.
  4. Allow to steam for two minutes, and scoop the mussels out of the pot, leaving the liquid. Reduce heat to medium.
  5. Mix the flour into the cream until smooth and lump free. Pour this into the pot and stir in the remaining ingredients.
  6. Stir the sauce until it thickens and adjust seasoning to taste.
  7. Add the mussels back into the sauce, toss and serve warm with a garnish of fresh parsley.
