Ingredients
250–300g Asda Seasoned French Fries
2 Large Shallots, diced
3 Leeks, thinly sliced
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 pack Asda Rich Roasted Garlic Butter Scottish Mussels
200ml Dry Cider
100ml Single Cream
1 tbsp Grainy Mustard
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
Method
1
Oven cook or air-fry the fries following pack instructions.

In a large saucepan with a fitted lid, add the shallots, leeks and olive oil. Season and fry on a medium-high heat for 5 mins, stirring, until the shallot is soft. Tip the mussels in from their bags with the cider, then place the lid on and let the mussels steam cook for 5 mins.

When the mussels are ready and shells have opened, stir in the cream, mustard and parsley. Taste to adjust seasoning if needed, then serve in big bowls with the fries alongside.
