- I bought pre-boiled frozen mussels this time.
- When you are using fresh ones, soak in salted water to remove sand.
- Steam-fry with a small amount of white wine.
- Defrost them, and separate the broth and mussels.
- Set aside a few in the shells for decoration.
- Remove the shells from the remaining mussels.
- Wash the rice and transfer into a sieve.
- Mince the onion and garlic, and cut the tomatoes into small cubes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of each butter and olive oil in a frying pan, and add the onion and garlic.
- Saute until they become translucent.
- Add the rice and fry for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, and briefly stir-fry.
- Transfer the rice into a rice cooker.
- Add the broth, white wine, and place the mussels on top.
- Sprinkle with Italian parsley, and cook as usual.
- When cooked, mix without the mussels, and serve on a plate.
- Place the mussels on top, and sprinkle with parsley.
- Drizzle with lemon juice if you like.
