  • 100 gms chopped Green Onion

  • 20 gms minced fresh Garlic
  • 1/2 tablespoon Fish Sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced Red Chili

Method

Steam the mussels until just cooked. For ease in eating, carefully slide a paring knife under the mussel meat to loosen the shell from the abductor muscle, placing the loose meat back onto the shell. Blend all topping ingredients and season with salt and pepper as needed. Top each mussel with a generous amount of the ginger pesto topping and serve.
