MUSSELS IN WHITE WINE WITH CURRY



Mussels In White Wine With Curry image

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, project, appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound spinach, stems and ribs removed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 shallots, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 cup dry white wine
4 pounds cultivated mussels, scrubbed and debearded (discard any with cracked or broken shells)
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons finely snipped fresh chives
Salt and freshly ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Wash the spinach three times in cold water and place it, still wet, in a large pot. Heat, stirring, until it wilts. Drain and refresh under cold water, drain and set aside.
  • In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon butter. Add shallots and curry powder and cook 2 minutes, stirring. Add wine, cook 3 minutes longer. Add mussels, cover and cook over high heat until they open, 8 minutes.
  • Transfer mussels from the pot with a slotted spoon to a big warm bowl, discarding any that have not opened. Cover the bowl with a clean towel wrung out in hot water.
  • Strain the mussel liquid through a coffee filter or cheesecloth, and place it in a clean, medium saucepan. Cook over high heat until reduced by half. Add the heavy cream, and reduce again by about half, until the sauce is just a little thicker than plain heavy cream. Stir in the chives and two tablespoons butter, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the remaining butter in a pan. Press excess moisture from spinach, add it and cook until just heated. Divide it among four large, shallow soup plates (if serving as a main course) or six plates (for a first course).
  • Pull off and discard one shell from each mussel, and arrange mussels on the half shell on the spinach. Reheat the sauce, spoon it over the mussels and serve at once.

CREAMY SPICED MUSSELS



Creamy spiced mussels image

Expand your seafood horizons - this recipe for mussels is not as difficult as you might think

Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Starter

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2kg fresh mussel
150ml dry white wine
2 shallots , finely chopped
25g butter
1 tsp plain flour
1-2 tsp curry paste
100g crème fraîche
chopped parsley , to serve

Steps:

  • Scrub the mussels in a large bowl of cold water and discard any that are open. Put in a large pan with the wine. Bring to the boil, cover and shake the pan over a high heat until the mussels are open, about 3-4 mins.
  • Tip the mussels into a colander set over a large bowl to catch the juices. Discard any that have not opened. Strain the cooking liquid through a sieve into a jug. Keep the mussels warm.
  • Fry the shallots in the butter in the large pan until they are softened, but not browned. Stir in the flour and curry paste, and cook for 1 min. Add the cooking liquid (discarding the last little bit, which may be gritty) and season with pepper. Don't add salt, as the mussel juices will be salty enough.
  • Stir the crème fraîche into the sauce, warming it through over a low heat until thickened and glossy. Divide the mussels between four bowls and pour over the sauce. Scatter with parsley and serve with chips or bread to mop up the juices.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh mussels: Look for mussels with tightly closed shells. Discard any mussels with open shells or broken shells.
  • Clean the mussels thoroughly: Scrub the mussels under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Remove the beards by pulling them out with your fingers.
  • Use a large pot: You will need a large pot to cook the mussels in. Make sure the pot is large enough to hold all of the mussels in a single layer.
  • Add flavor to the cooking liquid: Add aromatics such as onion, garlic, celery, and carrots to the cooking liquid to add flavor to the mussels.
  • Cook the mussels until they open: Cook the mussels over medium heat until they open. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Discard any mussels that do not open.
  • Make the curry cream sauce: While the mussels are cooking, make the curry cream sauce. Melt butter in a saucepan and whisk in flour. Gradually whisk in milk and cream. Add curry powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the mussels with the curry cream sauce: Serve the mussels immediately with the curry cream sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Mussels with curry cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish. The mussels are cooked in a flavorful broth and then served with a creamy curry sauce. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal.
