I'm quite unsure how many of my posts have began with "GUYS IM RELALY EXCITED ABOUT THIS", so just add this one to the list. One of the restaurants I frequent (Matter of Taste) has the besssssst mussels I've ever tasted, and this is the honorable mention to the broth it's cooked in. I obsess over this sauce, like I'm not kidding, after housing the entire plate of mussels I have them box the sauce and I put it on anything I can for the next week. I have been on a quest to figure out this damn recipe for years now and I think I got it down. ALSO check out my tiktok (@lyssious), I'm trying to keep up to date with the young kids (and my videos look way better than my pictures tbh) !
Ingredients:
- Any Package of Pasta (I got these extra large Paccheri from target after looking foreveeeeer)
- Any Package of Pasta (I got these extra large Paccheri from target after looking foreveeeeer)
- 1/2 cup of Chopped Onion
- 4 Cloves of Fresh Garlic
- 1.5 Tbsp. Thai Red Curry Paste
- 1 Can of Full Fat Coconut Milk
- 1 Lime
- 1 Tomato
- 1 Tbsp. of Sugar
- Basil/Cilantro
- Red Pepper Flakes
- 1 tsp Salt
- Chives (optional)
- Burrata (optional)
Directions:
1. Alright y'all, we're gonna start with the sauce. Make sure that you oil or butter your pan and throw your onions in and cook them down a bit, and then throw in your garlic.

2. Next you're going to want to add in the Thai Red Curry Paste. This is pretty thick so just mix it in with the onions and garlic and make sure its pretty spread out.
3. Then we hit emmmm with the cream! The full fat coconut milk makes this sauce sooo creamy, so make sure you get it all in there!
4. Now this next step is sooo important, you want to juice the ENTIRE lime in here. Whenever I watch cooking shows, they always mention the balance between dishes and how acid is so crucial to a dish, the lime adds the acid that this thick dish so badly needs.
5. This is where we can start to have fun with it, here you can add some tomatoes, red pepper flakes, fresh basil, fresh cilantro, some sugar and salt! ALL of these ingredients are optional, however these ingredients add so much flavor.
6. Boil your pasta and add to the sauce when complete- save a little bit of pasta water to mix in (idk why ok, tiktok told me to do that so I do it now- and so will you).
7. Pasta is NEVER complete, without cheese. So what better than to top my favorite sauce, with my favorite cheese? Burrata paired perfectly with this because it balanced out the heat really well.
8. Top the rest with some chives and impress literally anyone you've ever met :)
