Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the potatoes

    Begin by boiling the fingerling potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the sauce

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Add wine and mussels

    Pour in the white wine, add salt, and bring to a simmer. Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover, and steam for about 5-7 minutes until mussels open.

  4. 4

    Add salame and tomatoes

    Stir in the diced salame piccante and cherry tomatoes, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
