Mussels with Parsley and Garlic

This classic seafood dish brings the fresh flavours of the coast to your kitchen with minimal effort. These baked mussels are smothered in a vibrant paste of flat-leaf parsley and pungent garlic, creating a fragrant sauce that beautifully complements the natural sweetness of the shellfish. By sealing the dish with foil, the mussels steam in their own juices and the herb butter, ensuring every shell is infused with a deep, savoury flavour.

Perfect as an elegant starter or a light main course, this recipe is naturally nutritious and remarkably quick to prepare. Serve these mussels with a side of crusty foccacia or artisan bread to soak up the delicious garlic-scented juices. It is an ideal choice for effortless entertaining or a sophisticated weeknight treat that feels truly indulgent.
