Fish stock

1½ cup(s)

Mussels

1000 g, (buy 2kg in shell)

Fresh coriander

½ cup(s)

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a large saucepan with oil and heat over medium heat. Add paste and cook, stirring, for 1–2 minutes or until fragrant. Add evaporated milk and stock and bring to the boil.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Lime wedges, plus jasmine rice.Pot-ready (uncooked) mussels have been scrubbed and had most of the beards removed. They are available from the seafood counter of most supermarkets or your local fishmonger. If unavailable, scrub mussels in a large sink full of cold water with a firm brush. Hold the beard (furry part around the opening) close to the shell and gently tug until it comes off.
