MUSSELS IN SPICY COCONUT BROTH

السلام عليكم
Peace be upon you

How's your weekend buddies? I hope it went well and you enjoyed the weekend very much. Mine? AWESOME! :)

I got these last Saturday which makes my tummy so happy until the next of the day. :)

Ingredients

1kg fresh mussels (cleaned and drained)
10 bird's eye chillies *
3 stalks lemongrass (thinly slice) *
3 shallots *
2 cloves garlic *
Thumb size tumeric (pounded)
2 cups of coconut milk
1 cup water
Salt to taste


Method

Place those * ingredients in the food processor with a cup of water.  Blend it till smooth.

Heat a heavy bottomed sauce pan over medium heat. Pour the blended ingredients into the sauce pan and boil for 10-15 minutes or till fragrant.

Add in mussels, tumeric and salt and mix them well. Cooking till the mussels slightly open and pour in the coconut milk. Stir constantly for few minutes and turn off the heat.


Note : 

You can add tumeric powder if your broth looks pale.

I tak blend ubi kunyit sekali with other ingredients sebab tak nak food processor I turn to yellow :) So I tumbuk guna lesung batu.

Jangan masak santan terlalu lama sebab nanti santan akan pecah and santan mesti lah santan pekat.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

What I've enjoyed most, though, is meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. Good food is a global thing and I find that there is always something new and amazing to learn - I love it!
