Mussels and Sauce

Method

Cooking Instructions

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

Sauté Aromatics

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

3

Add Sauces

Stir in the harissa and chermoula, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

4

Deglaze with Wine

Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any stuck bits. Bring to a simmer.

5

Cook Mussels

Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover with a lid, and steam for about 5-7 minutes until the mussels open up.

6

Season and Serve

Season the mussels with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped cilantro and serve hot, garnished with additional cilantro if desired.
