instructions

Halve the avocados. Remove the pit and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Make sure the skin remains intact and leave the greenest edge of the filling in the skin. Cut the flesh into cubes. Mix this in a bowl with the mussels in vinegar and the lime juice. Add most of the coriander and spring onions and season with salt and pepper. Fill the hollowed-out avocados with the avocado and mussel mixture. Garnish with sesame seeds and the remaining coriander and spring onion. Mix the soy sauce and sesame oil together and serve with the avocados.

Can you freeze fresh mussels?

Fresh mussels in the shell should never be frozen. However, if you have cooked the mussels and can't eat them all, you can freeze the mussel meat after removing it from the shell. You can then add the mussels to soup or salad later, or fry them up nicely with some onion.
