4 pieces
salsiccia sausages (casings removed & meat separated into small pieces)

1
medium yellow onion, cubed

1

2

1
package of mussel seasoning
-
250 milliliters

3 tablespoons
Pernod

8 sprigs
fresh tarragon leaves
-
2
small crushed chilies
-
250 milliliters
heavy cream
-
2 tablespoons
fresh dill
-
6 tablespoons
extra-virgin olive oil
-
freshly ground pepper & salt
-
1
lemon, sliced
Directions
-
Fill a large pot with the broth or salted water. Bring to the boil. Add the potatoes and corn and cook until slightly tender. Note: you could actually add the potatoes and corn after the 3. step into the stockpot.....but I think the potatoes taste better if they are cooked seperately.....
-
In a large heavy bottomed stockpot heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, until soft about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and fennel and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Add the sausage meat and cook for another 5 minutes, until the meat is nicely browned.
-
Add the wine and Pernod and bring to the boil. Add the mussel seasoning, a bit of salt, chili flakes and tarragon.
-
Add the prawns, mussels and lemons slices and cover with the lid and cook, shaking the pan from time to time until the clams are open for about 6 minutes.
-
Add the heavy cream, gently stir with spoon to mix and simmer uncovered for another 2-3 minutes.
-
With a slotted spoon add potatoes and corn to the pot and gently stir that all is covered in broth. You might want to add a little bit broth as well.
-
Spoon into bowls or soup plates. Garnish with cut dill. Season again with pepper. Serve with fresh french country bread or baguette.
