Pineapple Curry With Prawns and Mussels image

Very easy, very tasty mild curry to wow your friends. [edit] OK, the first few times I made it, it was mild. Then I tried a different red curry paste and stupidly I didn't taste it.... it blew my head off! So, the moral of the story is to adjust your paste according to how hot it is, and how hot you like it. *I* liked it hot, but I nearly killed some of my guests :o)
