This recipe is a great way to use up leftover mussels. I had some leftover from a seafood boil and they were perfect for this dish.

This was my first time cooking mussels and they turned out amazing. The curry sauce was creamy and rich, and the mussels were plump and juicy. I'll definitely be making this again!
