Mussels

Fresh Mussels (or moules) are so tasty, so easy to make and so cheap - between £2-4 a kilo. Here I'll show you how to prepare them in a matter of minutes in a white wine and herb broth ... delicious to dunk a chunk of fresh crusty bread in!

To make a starter for 4 or Mains course for 2 you'll need:

• 1 Kilo of Fresh Mussels
  
• 1 Large Onion or 2 small ones
  
• 1 Garlic clove
  
• 30g Parsley
  
• 250ml White Wine
  

Serve with crusty bread to mop up the delicious white wine and herb broth.

MIX IT UP A LITTLE: To make this more like the famous French dish Moules Mariniere then stir through some double cream (about 120ml) just before serving. As the serving broth gets on your hand as you tuck in, I prefer a simple wine broth to this creamy one ... but it's personal choice! : )
