Steps to Make Spaghetti with Mussels:
- Prepare the Mussels: Clean the mussels thoroughly under cold water, removing any beards and discarding any open ones that do not close when tapped.
- Cook the Spaghetti: In a large pot, cook the spaghetti in salted boiling water until al dente.
- Sauté the Garlic: While the pasta cooks, heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Add Tomatoes and Mussels: Add the mussels with fresh parsley and pour in the white wine. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for a few minutes until they start to soften. Cover the pan and let the mussels steam until they open, about 5 minutes.
