- Prepare the mussels
Thaw and thoroughly rinse the mussels. I don’t add salt since the sauce and cheese already contain a sufficient amount of salt.
- Making the sauce for mussels
Making the sauce for mussels is very easy: in mayonnaise (I prefer using homemade organic mayonnaise), add a bit of black pepper and garlic powder.
Coat the surface of the mussels with the sauce.
- Add cheese to the mussels
Next, sprinkle cheese on top of the mussels and place them in the oven or air fryer to bake (I use the air fryer in the “seafood” mode) at a temperature of 350-370°F for 12-13 minutes.
- Baked mussels are ready!
The mussels acquire a golden color, and the cheese becomes crispy. The baked mussels are ready to be enjoyed. Indulge in this unforgettable delicacy!
