Few things marry together as well as seafood and white wine. Add a tasty tomato sauce, crumbly feta, plus fresh parsley, and you have a Mediterranean mussels-inspired dish that’s 100% delish. To soak up that sauce (and you will want to), there are toasted sourdough baguette rounds.

A TASTY TOMATO SAUCE
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the sliced onion and fry for 3-4 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Pour in the wine and leave to simmer for 1-2 minutes until almost all evaporated. Add the tomato passata, sliced pickled peppers, the rub, and 50ml water. Simmer for 1-2 minutes until slightly reduced.
LET’S MAKE SOME MUSSELS
When the sauce has slightly reduced, add the mussels, the peas, a sweetener of choice (to taste), and seasoning. Pop on the lid and simmer for 3-5 minutes until the mussels are heated through (don’t worry, they are pre-cooked!). Add ¾ of the chopped parsley, a squeeze of lemon juice and the lemon zest. Mix until combined.

While the mussels are steaming, smear the baguette rounds with butter or drizzle with oil. Place a pan over medium heat. When hot, add the baguette rounds, cut-side down, and toast for 1-2 minutes per side until browned.
