Add the corn cobs to the potatoes in the stock and boil for 5 minutes

Add the mussels to the pot an boil for 5 minutes

Add the prawns, boil for 3 minutes then take off the heat and leave covered for 5 minutes

Meanwhile, wash and steam the asparagus. You can add to the stock pot but make sure to boil for only the last minute of cooking so they remain al dente
