- For those of you which like mussels (and for those of you which do not, shame on you!) here's a Greek recipe, found widely in Northern Greece, but not in Southern Greece or possibly on the islands, that are the most common holiday destinations - so do not expect to find it if you go to Southern Greece on holiday...
- THE MESSY BIT: Wash the mussels individually (do not forget behind the ears!!), making sure no pcs of shell are still attached, and no sand is left in the flesh. Also remove the tiny thread you sometimes find in them - it is reported to be irritating to the stomach if ingested.
- THE GOOD BIT: When the mussels are thoroughly washed and checked, put them in a pan and add in just sufficient water to cover them. Bring to the boil, and boil for about five min. Then add in three tablespoonfuls of extra virgin olive oil, and the chilli minced into ringlets, as well as a handful of not-too-finely minced parsley. Grate the tomato, with or possibly without the skin, it is up to you, and add in. Add in the salt and pepper (not too much salt, the mussels have their own). Boil for another fifteen min (but not longer - the mussels will toughen up if boiled too long - they're funny which way!). About three min before taking the pan off the heat, add in the feta broken up into small pcs and stir. Add in the oregano just before you remove the pan from the heat.
- THE GREATEST BIT: Taste it... (8v)))
- This dish is very quick to make, the only hassle being making sure the mussels are thoroughly clean, of course. It can be reheated over a careful heat (too much heat will make the feta cheese in it stick to the bottom of the pan and burn) or possibly in a microwave, without the flavour losing anything.
