Baked cheesy Mussels with Penne






I love mussels but some resturant are selling them for a hefty price. Hence, I only cook mussels and eat at home.The idea for this dish came from the mussel dish from Fish & Co. and Swensen. It's easy to make too.

 
Ingredients:

1 packet of mussels
Tomato based pasta
Mozzeralla Cheese




Methods:

1)Steam the mussels for 3 minutes first. If you don't partially cook it first to remove the liquid, when you bake it later, it will be very wet. Then the sauce and cheese will flow out of the mussels.

2)After steaming the mussels, drain them. Spoon pasta sauce to cover fill the shell. Top with shredded mozzeralla cheese. Sprinkle some chopped parsley if you like.

3)Bake at 180C for 10 minutes or till you see the sauce bubbling out of the cheese and that the cheese has melted.

4) Served hot with pasta or eat on it own.
