Recipe
=====
1) A plate of nice life green mussels you get from Cold Storage for S$1.70
2) 3 cups of apple juice (the actual ingredient is dry white wine but we Muslim do not take alcohol)
3) 3 shallots of onions
4) Some Italian herbs (those convenient pre-mixed ones sold in small herbs bottles)
5) 1/3 cup of Salt
6) 1 clove of garlic
7) black pepper
8) Butter
Directions
=======
a) Pick the nice and live mussels by making sure that they shut their lids and stay that way when you press them
b) Also pull any hairy stuffs from the mussels, they're yucky
c) Put in the salt into a pot of clean water
d) Dump the mussels into the salt water and leave the mussels alone for about 15minutes. This will clean the mussels from any remaining yucky stuffs (you know mussels feed on yucky stuffs that're too yucky for me to write)
e) Rinse the mussels in clean water
f) Chop the onions
g) Mince the garlic
h) Heat a pot with lid, put in the butter and melt it
i) Saute the onions and garlic with the melted butter till they are soft and smell nice
j) Add in the apple juice, Italian herbs and black pepper
j) Bring it to boil and add in the mussels
k) Reduce heat to simmer and cook the mussels for 5 to 10 minutes or till the mussels' shells are open
l) With a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the hot mussels into a serving bowl
m) Throw away those mussels that have not opened
n) Spoon some of mussel juice over and serve. YUMMY!!!!
