I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
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.

Yummo!! I just used dried herbs & 1/2tsp of chilli paste but the heat was very mild. Add a teaspoon next time.

I used one sachet packet, which is equal to 2 tablespoons
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!
Recipe says 1 tomato paste, what measurement please?
Delish! The tomato sauce was to die for!
How much tomato paste for this ?
Made this tonight and hubby was so impressed with my first meal from my new Thermie, he says he'll never need to order chilli mussels at a restaurant again when mine are better. Thanks
I made this last night..was so yum..I had to add more chilli for a bit of a hit
