Preparation

  • In a large casserole, carefully cook leeks into 30 ml (2 tablespoons) of butter. Avoid butter to roast. Add celery and continue cooking to about 2 to 3 minutes. Pour white wine and bring to a boil.
  • When boiling, add mussels and cover. Cook at high heat until it opens, so about 5 minutes.
  • Make a beurre manié by mixing together remaining butter and flour to obtain a soft dough.
  • Remove mussels and set in a warm service plate, while keeping the broth in the casserole. Add bit by bit the beurre manié to the broth while whisking.
  • Rectify seasoning. Pour sauce over mussels.
