Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Totaltime: 0 minutes

Ingredients

  • 5 pints large mussels
  • 1/2 cup ground almonds
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 12 peppercorns
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper to taste

Preparation

  • Sort, scrape, wash the mussels, discarding any that do not close. Steam them in a cup of water, in a large kettle. Drain mussels and reserve the cooking liquid. Remove the empty half shell from each mussel, and discard, leaving the mussel attached to other half shell.
    In a food processor combine the ground almonds, pine nuts, crushed garlic, parsley, paprika, peppercorns and half of the oil. Mix to a thick paste.
    In a medium pot, brown the onion in the remaining oil. Stir in the blended paste, and mix over a brisk fire, while stirring. Add the tomato paste and thin sauce with reserved mussel juice to obtain a thick sauce. Season to taste.
    Loosen each mussel from the shell. Arrange on a serving dish. Fill each mussel with the sauce. Serve hot.
