MUSSELS WITH POTATO AND GARLIC
Mussels are so tasty that they require very little embellishment. Here they are partnered with garlic potatoes and herbs to give a gutsy low-fat treat. It is important not to boil the mussels too much or they will become tough. Add a splash of cream at the last moment for extra luxury. From "Gourmet Ireland" by Paul and Jeanne Rankin.

Steps:
- Wash the mussels in plenty of cold water, pulling away the hairy beards as you go. Discard any that are not closed or do not close when tapped sharply with a knife. Bring the water and white wine to a boil in a large pan.
- Add the herb sprigs and garlic and simmer for 1 minute.
- Add the mussels, bring to a vigorous boil and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until they have all opened.
- Discard any mussels that have not opened. Immediately drain into a colander, catching all the juices in a bowl underneath.
- Strain the juices through a fine sieve into a clean pan and add the leeks and potatoes. Cook over medium heat for about 7 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- While the potatoes are cooking, pull the mussels from their shells. Save a few of the shells for garnish.
- To serve, add the mussels and chopped parsley to the potato broth and warm thoroughly. Check and adjust the seasoning to taste. Serve in warmed bowls garnished with a few nice shells.

MUSSELS WITH POTATOES AND OLIVES
These are served in a Mediterranean spiced tomato sauce. I like to drain the diced tomatoes, then puree and add to the drained tomato liquid so that it is smooth, not chunky.

Steps:
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add onions and blanch until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon. Add potatoes and blanch until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain.
- Arrange onions in the bottom of a 14-inch ovenproof skillet (or divide between 2 smaller skillets). Layer the potatoes over onions and season with salt and pepper. Layer tomatoes over potatoes and place thyme on top. Pour in 1 cup of wine, place over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Heat 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil in a large, wide pot over low heat. Add the shallots and saute for 5 minutes. Add the remaining wine and bring to a boil. Add clams and mussels, cover and cook until shells are opened, about 8 minutes. Strain; reserve the broth. Keep the clams and mussels warm.
- Scatter roasted garlic over tomatoes. Season snapper with salt and pepper and lay the fillets over the vegetables. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Pour 1 cup of reserved broth around the fish. Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- To serve, use a spatula to get underneath the fish and vegetables so that you can transfer each serving to a soup plate, without disturbing the layers. Garnish with the clams and mussels. Top with a lemon slice and the chopped parsley and serve immediately.

RED CURRY MUSSELS AND ROASTED SWEET POTATOES
Moules-frites, a hearty bowl of mussels served with fries on the side, is very popular in Belgium and France. This version is seasoned with Thai spices and paired with sweet potatoes - not traditional at all, but totally satisfying. The recipe calls for commercially made red curry paste, which makes this dish quick to prepare. It shouldn't be hard to find at Asian grocers and online, but do try to obtain makrut lime leaves, which impart a lovely floral note.

Steps:
- Prepare the sweet potatoes: Heat oven to 450 degrees. Peel the sweet potatoes, and cut them lengthwise into slender wedges. Put them in a large bowl, and toss them with coconut oil to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and spread out in a single layer. Bake, uncovered for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 400 degrees. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until tender with a crisp exterior. Before serving, sprinkle with cumin and cayenne.
- While sweet potatoes are baking, make the curry: Put vegetable oil in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook until lightly browned and softened, about 8 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add chiles, garlic, ginger and lemongrass and let sizzle for about 1 minute. Then add red curry paste and tomato paste and fry with the onion mixture for 2 minutes more.
- Add fish sauce, lime leaves and coconut milk. Bring mixture to a boil, then add mussels and stir to coat with sauce. Cover and cook mussels, stirring once or twice, until all the mussels have steamed open, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Ladle mussels and lots of sauce into deep, wide bowls. Sprinkle with cilantro and Fresno chile slices and top with basil leaves. Serve with a platter of hot sweet potatoes and lime wedges.
