Creamy Mussels with Garlic Bread

How to Make

1. 1

   Note! If you don't have a splash of white wine in your fridge, you can, for example, use apple juice instead.

2. 2

   Rinse and wash the mussels well. Discard any shells that are damaged or do not close if you carefully hit them against the kitchen counter.

3. 3

   Bake the garlic baguettes according to the instructions on the package.

4. 4

   Mince the garlic and red onion and add to a saucepan with oil or butter. Cook until the onion is soft.

5. 5

   Add white wine (or apple juice) and mussels. Let the mussels steam with the lid on until all the shells have opened.

6. 6

   Take the mussels out of the pot and discard the ones that didn't open. Add cream to the pan, and cook for a few minutes until the sauce thickens.

7. 7

   Put the mussels back in the pot and top with lemon juice and finely chopped basil.
