Grilled Mussels Greek Style

September 17, 2009 by Thomas K

New Zealand is blessed with awesome seafood selections, yummy fish and chips, bluff oysters that’s to-die-for (accompanied by a glass of Oyster Bay Chardonnay) and heaps of cheap green lipped mussels.  Those mussels are so fresh, extremely large in size that some are almost as big as the palm of my hand with big fat juicy meat inside. The best way to cook them is in white wine to keep them stay juicy and sweet.  Whoa, just talking about them makes my mouth waters….  I never thought I would enjoy mussels so much in my life.

This recipe is adopted from a Greek-style mussel recipe. Best served for brunch - but I’ll have them as appetizer for dinner tonight.
