mussels+chorizo Recipe

Prepare the Potatoes

Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat, add the potatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cook the Chorizo

In the same pan, add the chorizo sausage and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Prepare the Mussels

In a large pot, add the mussels with a splash of water and cover. Steam the mussels over medium heat until they open up, about 5 minutes. Discard any that do not open.

Make the Mustard Cream

In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream and Dijon mustard. Heat gently over low heat until warm, stirring occasionally.

Assemble the Dish

On a serving plate, layer the fried potatoes, top with chorizo and steamed mussels. Drizzle with mustard cream and garnish with chopped scallions.
