Grilled Mussels with Garlicy Parmesan

I love mussels! No mussels fans at home so I always have it all to myself. However, my husband who hates mussels love this and finished a whole dish of it!!



I usually get those cheap mussels from a nearby supermarket. It is really cheap; less than S$2 for a tray! It has about 30 of them. The best part was, after savouring the dish, I have plenty of shells I can use to do crafts with my son.



Oh, be careful when you eat these. You can't stop at one!

Ingredients:

• 30 Mussels, brushed and cleaned


• 2 tablespoon Butter, melted


• 5 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese


• 1 tablespoon Garlic Powder


• 1 teaspoon Black Pepper, coarsely grounded


• 2 teaspoon Fresh Parsley, chopped (optional)

How to do it:

1. Preheat oven to 170C.


2. Place mussels in a pot with 50ml water and cover.


3. Cook for 5 minutes or till mussels open up.


4. Drain and discard those that remained close (they are bad).


5. Snap the empty part of the shell off.


6. Place the other shell with the mussels on a oven-proof dish.


7. Mix the remaining ingredients together.


8. Place some of the butter mixture on top of each mussel.


9. Sprinkle more parmesan cheese on top if you like.


10. Grill till the mussels are sizzling and the top mixture are golden.


11. Serve immediately.
