Method
Step 1 of 3
Discard any mussels that are broken or do not close immediately when sharply tapped with a knife. Put them in a large saucepan with the lager, cover and cook, shaking the pan frequently, for 4 minutes until all the shells have opened. Discard any that remain closed. Strain, reserve the cooking liquid and keep it warm.
Step 2 of 3
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan and fry the onion, garlic, ginger and curry powder, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes. Strain in the reserved mussel liquid and bring to a boil. Boil until reduced by half, whisk in the cream and lemon juice and simmer gently.
Step 3 of 3
Stir in the mussels, warm through and season to taste. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread, if liked.
