Mussel Fritters image

I found this recipe on the Geocities Website. Whipped it up for lunch today and these fritters are devine. Light and tasty and they go down a treat. The recipe notes that Basil is the secret ingredient in this recipe.

These fritters were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would use less oil next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it! The fritters were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The mussel flavor was subtle, but it was there.
