Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Thoroughly scrub the mussels under running water to remove the beards and grit.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the mussels, oil, and wine with 1/2 cup water.
  3. Hand-crush the tomatoes into the mixture. Cover and cook over high heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until the shells open.
  4. Transfer to bowls with a slotted spoon, discarding any mussels that did not open.
  5. Spoon the sauce over the open mussels and sprinkle with chopped parsley and oregano.
  6. HINT: if you use California mussels rather than those from the east coast, they are bigger and more easily removed from the shells.
