clean bowl, add the mustard and whisk together. Very slowly add the olive oil, whisking it in drop by drop. Once about a quarter of it has been added, you can add the rest in a steady stream, whisking all the time until it’s all been poured in. Roughly chop the basil leaves and smash in a pestle and mortar with one of the cloves of garlic and a pinch of salt until you get a green paste. Stir this into the egg and oil mix and season carefully with salt, freshly ground black pepper and lemon juice.
Give the mussels and clams a good wash in
plenty of clean cold water and scrub any dirty ones lightly with a scrubbing brush, pulling off any beardy bits you might find on them. Throw away any that aren’t tightly closed.
Heat a splash of olive oil in a pan. Slice up the
rest of the garlic and half it into the pan, then a few leaves of basil and the tomatoes. Cook gently for 10-15 minutes until the liquid has reduced a little to make a sauce.
Heat your Tefal pan until nice and hot. Add a
splash of oil and the remaining sliced garlic and fry until golden brown. Add the shellfish, the squid, the white wine and the pieces of sea bass or bream, and put the lid on. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the tomato sauce, replace the lid and cook until all the clams and mussels are open and the fish is cooked through. Pick out any mussels or clams that haven’t opened and throw them away.
Serve the soup divided between 2 soup
bowls, topped with a slice of toasted bread and a blob of basil aioli.
• a handful of clams • 4 langoustines • a splash 3 cloves of garlic •
