Steps:
- Combine the rice, 1 tablespoon butter, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 2 cups water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and celery, season with salt and cook until just tender, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and Cajun seasoning; cook until the tomatoes start breaking down, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Add 1 cup water and the mussels and season with salt. Cover and cook until the mussels open, 4 to 5 minutes (discard any unopened mussels). Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter; season with salt.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and divide among bowls. Top with the mussels and broth; sprinkle with parsley.
HOMEMADE STUFFED MUSSELS WITH AROMATIC RICE; MIDYE DOLMA
Midye Dolma, stuffed mussels with aromatic rice, herbs and spices, is a delicious street food we love as a nation in Turkey. They are well worth the effort to make at home; these scrumptious stuffed mussels, midye dolma would make an impressive starter or if you really like them like my 11 year old son, it may be your main course!

Steps:
- Place the currants in a bowl, cover with warm water and soak for 15 minutes. Then drain and set aside.
- Place the rice into a sieve and rinse well under cold running water. Drain the rice and set aside.
- Make the stuffing first (you can also make the stuffing a day ahead of time). Heat the oil in a medium sized pan and stir in the onions. Sauté over medium to high heat for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the pine nuts to the onions, sauté over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring often. Add the rice, currants, chopped tomato, tomato paste, spices and season with salt to your taste. Pour in the hot water (about 240 ml/ 8 fl oz. / 1 cup) and combine all well. Bring to the boil then cover to simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, until all the liquid has been absorbed. Rice will be "al dente" and still have a bite to it. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
- Once cool, stir in the chopped dill and parsley to the aromatic rice and combine well. Check the seasoning and add more salt or ground black pepper if you'd like. Set aside to cool. You can cook this delicious aromatic rice a day ahead of time and keep in the fridge, covered. This really helps the flavors to blend in and phase your cooking time wise.
- Now, open the mussels. If you've bought the mussels in a vacuum bag, open the bag over a bowl to catch any liquid inside. Place the mussels in a large bowl and rinse under cold water. Scrub the shells clean and scrape off any dirt. Using a blunt knife, carefully force the point of the knife into the gap at the pointy end of each mussel (if opening the shells become challenging, soaking them in warm water helps to open the shell, as it relaxes the mussels). Slice through the meat so the shell opens with half the meat attached to each half shell - once you cut through the thick, round connecting muscle at the bottom of the mussel, it will be easy to open.
- Pour the juice from the mussel to a bowl. Snip off the beards and using your finger, remove any grit at the base. Spread the half shells to tear the muscle of the mussel, but leave the two halves connected. Put about 2 tsp. of stuffing into the middle of each mussel (try not to overfill) and push the half shells together again.
- Place the mussels on a wide heavy pan, with the tips pointing outwards towards the edge of the pan, with the shells slightly overlapping (to prevent them opening). Build a tight spiral of shells in the center of the pan. There should be one layer of mussels, so if you have mussels left over, use another pan to keep on the layering. Place a wide plate over the mussels to prevent them from opening too wide while they cook.
- Strain the mussel juice through a sieve lined with a double layer of muslin (cheese cloth) three times to remove any grit. Mix the mussel juice with water, make it up about 250 ml/ 9 oz. / generous 1 cup water (have another 1 cup of water ready if you are using two pans). Pour this mixture to the pan; the water level should only reach to the half of the shell. Cover the pan and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove the mussels from the heat and leave to cool at room temperature. Then cover and keep them in the fridge for 30 minutes - 1 hour to cool further and for the flavors to settle. Serve stuffed mussels with aromatic rice, midye dolma on a big platter with lemon wedges by the side. They are best enjoyed eating with your hands, using the top shell to scoop the mixture out of the bottom shell, with a generous squeeze of lemon over the mussel with aromatic rice.

Steps:
- Steam the mussels (see recipe). Measure the broth and add enough water to make 1 cup. Place this liquid in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the rice, reduce the heat so the liquid simmers slowly, cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Place the rice in a bowl.
- Preheat a broiler. Remove the mussels from the shells. Separate 20 half-shells and wash them. Coarsely chop the mussels and add them to the rice. Stir in the thyme, lemon rind, salt and pepper. Divide the mixture among the cleaned mussel shells. Place the stuffed mussels under the broiler until hot, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
