Method

Mussels, cook to boil. Mix butter and garlic together with a spoon.

Foil an oven tray and place mussels neatly in rows.

Place a teaspoon (or tablespoon) of butter mixture on each mussel (if you decide on tablespoon you better make more of the butter).

Place the oven tray into the oven at 180°C and cook leave for about 10 mins (or just check every 2 mins to ensure you do not burn down the kitchen).
