How to cook deliciously - Moules Frites

1. Stage

Prepare fries until the first fry is finished at 325ºF. Move them to a paper towel lined baking sheet, heat fry oil to 375º and wait for the final fry. 

2. Stage

Meanwhile, in a large heavy bottomed pot over medium, heat olive oil. Add chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly golden and crisp. Add shallot and cook 5 minutes or until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

3. Stage

Add white wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer uncovered until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Add mussels and cover immediately. 

4. Stage

Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, shaking the pot occasionally, until all or most of the mussels have opened. While the mussels cook, finish the fries. Season them and set aside. 

5. Stage

Remove mussels to a large bowl and discard any that remain closed. Add 3 tablespoons butter to the remaining simmering liquid and mix until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then add parsley. 

6. Stage

Pour the broth over the mussels and serve alongside a basket of fries.
