Mussels with Saffron Aioli, Yellow Tomatoes, and Roasted Fingerlings (FRENCH FUSION)
Moules-frites,
or mussels and french fries, are a staple at most French bistros and wine bars.
… brings France to the dinner table with briny mussels saturated in a thin,
marinara-like sauce with grated yellow tomatoes, cumin, and piment d'Espelette,
a French chile.
Herb-coated
tender fingerling potatoes are served with the mussels as a heartier (and
oven-roasted) alternative to the more traditional french fries.
A garlicky
aioli with pops of floral saffron is a luscious dipping sauce for the roasted
fingerling potatoes. It also makes a delicious accompaniment for fish or your
favorite crudités.
