This recipe morph from a recipe my dad used to cook when I was growing up in the UK – I remember thinking it was extremely ‘fancy’ eating mussels as a kid but this recipe is neither fancy nor expensive to make BUT it is yum!
Method

- Add the onion, coriander stalks, chilli* and garlic and cook til softened.

- Add the spinach, coconut cream and stir.
- Add the mussels and ensure to coat the mussels with the sauce.
- Pop the lid on and cook for 5-6 min on medium heat.
- Once the mussels are open they are ready – serve in a deep bowl and garnish with some coriander leaves and a squeeze of lemon
- Enjoy
