Recipe's preparation

    Chilli mussels

  1. Place garlic and chilli in TM and mince on speed 10 for 5 seconds. Add onion and chop for 3 seconds speed 6. 

    Scrape down bowl and add oil. Saute on 100 reverse for 5 minutes. 

    Meanwhile chop basil, oragano and parsley roughly by hand. When sauting is done, add the herbs, tomatoe paste, tinned tomatoes and wine to the TM bowl. Cook for 10 minutes at 100 degress on speed 2. 

    Place the mussels in the varoma and place on top of the bowl. Continue cooking at 100 degrees, speed 2, for 15 minutes. When done, place the mussels and the sauce in a large bowl to mix together.

    Place in large bowls for serving. 

    I added another finly chopped chilli or 2 on top of the served bowls for adults. The heat as above was fine for my 6 and 7 year old boys. I also added some chopped parsly as a garnish on top.

    I served this with previously made TM foccacia.

    Great recipe. I used a little more garlic than stated here, 1 and a half birds eye chillies, instead of longer chillies and only 1kg of mussels, because of some of the above comments; it was plenty.

    My partner and I had a bad run of buying some not so great red wine over the weekend, which we couldn't bring ourselves to drink, so used some of that instead of white wine and the sauce tasted GREAT!

    Will definitely come back use this recipe again in the future!

  • These were delicious and so

    Submitted by Chocky on 18. March 2013 - 16:51.

    These were delicious and so quick and easy. I could only fit a kilo of the mussels into my Veroma so steamed the rest on the stove top and mixed them all into the sauce when it was ready.

  • When mussels are placed in

    Submitted by Valentine Carter on 6. January 2012 - 00:32.

    When mussels are placed in varoma they need to be at varoma temp to steam them. Unfortunately I couldn't fit 1.5 kg of mussels in my varoma  so had to do it in two batches. The sauce however was yummyI used loads of basil and coriander as that's all I had for herbs. Thanks for the recipe  tmrc_emoticons.)
