Ingredients
2lbs Mussels 
3 Cloves Garlic Minced
1 Shallot Minced 
1 Tbsp Fresh Ginger Minced
3-4 Green Onions, white part thinly sliced 
1-2 Serrano Peppers Thinly Sliced 
1/4 Cup Cilantro Chopped
2 Tbsp Tomato Paste
3/4 Cup Tomato Puree/Passata 
1/3 Cup Chicken Broth 
1 Cup Coconut Cream 
2 Tbsp Ghee 
1 Tbsp Lime Juice (half of a lime)
1 tsp Garam Masala 
1 tsp Chili Powder
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika 
1/2 tsp Turmeric 
1/2 tsp Cumin 
1/4 tsp Coriander 
2 Bay Leaves 
Pinch of Red Pepper Flakes 
Salt and Pepper
Drizzle of Chili Oil 

Basmati Rice
1 Cup Rice
1 tbsp Ghee 
1 1/2 Cup Water

How I made it:

Using the Tramontina 4 qt. Tri-Ply Clad Stainless Steel Covered Kadai over medium heat add 1 Tbsp of ghee. Toast the rice for 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a saucepan and add water. Bring to a rapid boil. Cover and lower to a simmer. Simmer for ~15 minutes until water has been absorbed and rice is fluffy. 
Using the Kadai add 2 Tbsp of Ghee on medium heat. Add shallots, green onion and ginger. Stir and cook until shallots have softened (3 minutes). Add Garlic and Serrano Pepper. Stir cook until fragrant. Add spices. Stir and cook for two minutes. Add tomato paste and lime juice, stir. Cook for 2 minutes. Add tomato puree and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer. Add coconut cream. Add bay leaves. Simmer for 10 minutes. Once liquid has thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper.  Add mussels. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove mussels and bay leaves from the pan. Discard any that do not open. Simmer the broth for three minutes. Add mussels back into the broth. Garnish with a drizzle of chili oil, cilantro and extra Serrano pepper slices

Serve with basmati rice. Happy Cooking and Happy Eating :)!
