- - 700 g frozen mussels;
- - 250 g of finished puff pastry;
- - 200 g heavy cream;
- - 3 tbsp. spoons of curd cheese (Philadelphia or Almette);
- - green onions;
- - salt, pepper, any spices.
Instructions
Step 1
Defrost the mussels first, put them in a bowl, add the curd cheese, chopped green onions. Pour in the cream, salt and pepper.
Step 2
Buy ready-made frozen puff pastry, defrost it. Roll out rectangles or circles from the dough - these will be "lids", they should be 2 cm larger in diameter than the top of the molds in which you will prepare the snack.
Step 3
Spread the creamy mixture with mussels in portioned molds, cover the top with the dough, tie the dough around the edges with culinary thread, and make a small hole in the middle - this is required so that the steam can escape freely during the cooking process.
Step 4
Put the molds in the oven, cook for 20-25 minutes at 200 degrees. The dough should brown.
Step 5
Serve the creamed mussels hot under the hat. You can sprinkle with grated cheese on top. Puff pastry is here not only as lids - crunchy dough with a bite of mussels is simply incredibly tasty!
