These Portuguese-style mussels are lively and a little fiery, with tomato, garlic, wine and coriander making the broth feel warm-weather bright.

Serves: 6 people

Preparation time: 9 min

Ingredients

  • Fresh mussels – 2 kg
  • Olive oil – 3 tbsp
  • Onion – 1, chopped
  • Garlic – 4 cloves, sliced
  • Chopped tomatoes – 300 g
  • White wine – 200 ml
  • Piri-piri or chili flakes – to taste
  • Fresh coriander – 3 tbsp, chopped
  • Lemon juice – 1 tbsp
  • Salt – to taste

Method

STEP 1
Rinse and check the mussels well, then set them aside.
STEP 2
Heat the olive oil in a pot and cook the onion until soft. Add the garlic and chili and let them perfume the oil without browning too much.
STEP 3
Add the tomatoes and cook them down for a few minutes, then pour in the white wine and let the broth come together.
STEP 4
Tip in the mussels, cover the pot and steam until opened, giving the pan a good shake once halfway through.
STEP 5
Stir in most of the coriander and the lemon juice at the very end, then scatter the rest of the coriander over the bowls when serving.
