This was a waste of time and ingredients. The coconut curry sauce was watery and tasteless, and the mussels and clams were tough and chewy. I would not recommend this recipe.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The coconut curry sauce was not very flavorful, and the mussels and clams were a bit overcooked. I would not make this dish again.
