Pasta with mussels
Description
Mussels cook quickly and easily—you can use either fresh or frozen ones. Frozen mussels can be added directly to the pan without thawing. By the way, you can prepare this dish with different types of pasta; it's also very tasty with spaghetti. Sometimes I add a few shrimp to mellow out the rather strong flavor of the mussels.
