How to make
Prepare the mussels: scrape the mussels and wash them under running water. Pour them into a pan, add 1/2 cup white wine, cover them with a lid and leave them to open up over medium heat. Leave some mussels with their shells and clean all of the others. Filter the cooking liquid.
Clean the leeks. Cut them in half, wash them under running water to remove all traces of soil: dry and cut them.
In a pot, fry the leeks for a few minutes with oil and hot pepper. Deglaze with the remaining white wine, add the mussels and shrimp (defrosted), 1/2 cup filtered liquid, diced tomatoes (cut into cubes) and continue to cook over low heat for about 10 minutes. (adjust the salt, if necessary)
Meanwhile boil the spaghetti in salted water. Add the cream to the mussels and shrimp, cook for a few minutes and turn off the heat. Strain the pasta into the pan, add the parsley and stir. Serve the spaghetti with seafood hot.
