Steps 🔥:
🦐 Cut 500g of mixed seafood into bite-size pieces, first removing any shells.
🦐 If using mussels, wash and scrape the shells and open them by putting them in a pot with a little boiling water. Cover and boil for a few minutes, removing each mussel as it opens to prevent overcooking.
🦐 Chop a handful of basil leaves and seed and finely slice 3 bird’s eye chilies.
🦐 In a frying pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Brown 2 tablespoons of crushed garlic and sauté the seafood for a couple of minutes. Drain off the oil and set the garlic seafood mixture aside.
