Ingredients

Method

1

Wash the mussels under cold running water and pull out any beards. If any are open, give them a wee tap to see if they will close shut. Discard those that don’t close, along with any that are cracked or damaged.

2

Melt the butter in a large heavy based pan. (Make sure it's one that you have a well fitting lid for) Gently fry the chopped onion and crushed garlic until soft.

3

Pour in the Gin & Tonic and when it comes to the boil add the mussels.

4

Cover with the lid and simmer for four or five minutes, occasionally shaking the pan, until all of the mussels are opened.

5

Add the cream and parsley and season with freshly ground salt and pepper.

6

Serve with plenty of crusty bread to soak up all the Gin & Tonic infused Mussel juices.
