Try the 2017 Alejandro from Alex Russell with its bright yellow fruit core, sea salt and bay leaf notes and racy acidity. INGREDIENTS 100ml extra virgin olive oil 4 garlic cloves, crushed ¾ cup (50g) stale breadcrumbs ½ bunch fresh parsley, chopped 2 kg cleaned mussels – Spring Bay or Kinkawooka 1 cup (250ml) water Freshly ground black pepper METHOD Place olive oil over medium heat in a saucepan, add garlic and cook until fragrant. Add breadcrumbs, stir until combined. Remove from heat. Stir in parsley. Place the mussels in a pan with the water, cover; bring to the boil. Steam, covered, until mussels just open. Discard the top shell and loosen mussels from base of shell. Alternatively, cook on a hotplate until they open. Place mussels on a large oven tray; spoon ½-¾ teaspoon of breadcrumb mixture onto each mussel. Top with black pepper.
