5 pounds mussels, debearded and scrubbed
2 tablespoons red curry paste
1 tablespoon fish sauce
3-4 limes, squeezed to make approx.1/3 cup juice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup dry white wine
1 13.5 oz can unsweetened coconut milk
2 cups chopped cilantro
2 additional limes, quartered
LOTS of crusty bread!

1
Combine all sauce ingredients (red curry paste through coconut milk) in a large stock pot and stir well, making sure sugar and curry paste are nicely dissolved.
2
Bring to a boil over high heat and boil for 2 minutes.
3
Add mussels. Cover and cook, stirring every now and then, until mussels open - 6 - 8 minutes.
4
Remove from heat and discard any unopened mussels. Add in the cilantro and toss to combine.
5
Dump into a nice big serving dish and serve with crusty bread and lime wedges. I think it's fun and communal to set out a big basket of crusty bread and just let your guests all hover over the serving dish, dunking bread and picking out mussels!
6
NOTE: The sauce is phenomenal - you won't want to miss a drop; you could also pour over steamed brown or white rice for a bright, hearty and satisfying dish.
