Sopa de Choros Ingredients

Method

Sopa de Choros Preparation

1

Prepare the Mussels

Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

2

Make the Broth

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onions are translucent.

3

Cook the Mussels

Add the rinsed mussels to the pot, followed by the water, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to a simmer for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels open.

4

Garnish and Serve

Remove from heat, stir in the chopped parsley, and serve the soup hot with lemon wedges on the side.
