Ingredients
- 2 Doz Fresh Mussels
- 1 Cup Unseasoned Breadcrumbs
- ¾ Cup Shredded Pecorino Romano Cheese
- 4 Cloves Fresh Minced Garlic
- 4 tbsp Fresh Chopped Italian Parsely
- 1 Hot Red Pepper
- 2 15 oz cans Pureed Tomatoes
Instructions
- Let's start by making the stuffing, Combine Breadcrumbs, Cheese, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp oil, 2 tbsp Parsley, Basil, and 2 cloves minced Garlic. Mix until a moldable stuffing is formed. If it is too dry add more oil or eggs.
- Scrub Mussels and remove beards. Shuck them open by inserting a pairing knife in the broad of the mussel and pry them open.
- Stuff the Mussel with about ¾ teaspoon of the stuffing. Try not to use too much stuffing or you won't be able to enjoy the flavor of the Mussel.
- Prepare the sauce by combining the remaining parsley, minced garlic, Tomato puree, and thinly sliced hot pepper if you like a little more heat in your sauce add more hot pepper. Bring to a simmer for about 15 minutes.
- Add the Mussels to the sauce, and cover. Let the Mussels cook for 10-15 minutes remove them from the sauce and serve.
