Recipes Seafood Shellfish Mussels Curried Mussels Be the first to rate & review! 1 Photo This is a spicy curried dish that my English husband loves! Great as an appetizer or as a main dish. For less spicy/hot, reduce ginger and/or curry paste. Serve with your favorite crusty bread for dipping. Recipe by Soundergirl25 Published on June 19, 2020 Save Saved!
