Chilli Mussels

Apr 11 10:51am
Ingredients
* 100ml extra virgin olive oil
* 2kg mussels, scrubbed and de-bearded
* 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
* 2 small red chillies, finely chopped or 2 tsp chilli paste
* 250ml white wine
* 600ml bottle Sugo - Italian tomato cooking sauce
* 2 spring onions, finely chopped
* 1/2 cup roughly chopped Italian parsley
To serve
* Fresh crusty bread, sliced and toasted
Method

Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add mussels, garlic and chillies and cook whilst stirring for 2 - 3 minutes or until the mussels have started to open.

Add white wine, sugo, spring onions and parsley. Cover mussels with a tight fitting lid and allow to steam for 2 - 3 minutes until the mussels have fully opened. Discard any mussels that haven't opened at this stage, and then transfer mussels and all the sauce into a wide brimmed serving dish.

Garnish with a little extra chopped parsley and serve with generous slices of toasted, crusty bread to mop up all the sauce.

Hi Carolyn, I have this recipe from BHG and am quite happy to provide it to you. The recipe was called "Mussels with chorizo, tomato and white wine" and titled "Majestic Mussels" as was shown on TV. It also gave a choice of using either pearl pasta or risoni. Let me know if you still want it.
