If you ordered this at a local restaurant, you just paid way too much for a dish that was probably not near as good as this. Very inexpensive yet very gourmet. You’ll want to make French baguettes for dipping.
40 - 60 mussels
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 large can plum tomatoes, mashed
1- 6 oz can tomato paste
5 - 6 leaves fresh basil
1 Tbsp. oregano
1/8 tsp. red pepper
½ tsp. black pepper
1 tsp salt
1 cup red wine
1 pound linguini
Rinse mussels well. Sauté onion and garlic in oil. When onion is soft, add lemon, tomatoes, paste, basil, oregano, red and black pepper and salt. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally for 25 minutes. Add red wine, stir and simmer until sauce is thickened - 15 to 20 minutes longer. Cook linguini. Meanwhile, add mussels to sauce, cover and cook over high heat until mussels open… 5 minutes. Lower heat and simmer until linguini is cooked. Empty linguini in a very large bowl, pour sauce and mussels over it. Serve immediately.
