Ingredients

1 lb
yellow-flesh potatoes, cut into ½-in. (1 cm) thick fries
500 g
½ cup
olive oil, divided
125 mL
1 tsp
salt, divided
5 mL
1
ripe avocado, pitted and peeled
3 tbsp
lemon juice
45 mL
1 tbsp
Dijon mustard
15 mL
4 cloves
garlic, minced, divided
1
onion, finely chopped
2 lb
mussels
1 kg
1 cup
dry white wine
250 mL

Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425ºF (220ºC). Toss potatoes with 2 tbsp (30 mL) oil and ½ tsp (2 mL) salt. Arrange on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake, turning fries over once, 25 to 30 min. or until golden brown and tender.

Step 2

Place avocado, ¼ cup (60 mL) oil, lemon juice, mustard and half the garlic into blender; puree until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

Meanwhile heat remaining oil in Dutch oven or large saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add onion and remaining garlic. Cook, stirring, 2 to 3 min. or until onions are tender. Add mussels, wine and remaining salt. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and steam mussels 5 to 8 min., or until mussels open. Discard any that do not open.

Step 4

Serve mussels and fries with 2 tbsp (30 mL) avocado aioli per serving. (Keep remaining aioli refrigerated for another use).

Tips

To make sure to cook only live mussels, do the "tap test": Firmly tap shells on chopping board or counter and discard any that don’t close.
