Aishling Moore: How to make a one-pot wonder mussel and chorizo soup

This weekend’s mussel and chorizo soup is a fabulous shellfish soup to add to one's repertoire of one-pot wonders

Aishling Moore: "The key to any good soup is the stock, especially so in a broth. For this recipe, I’ve used a little fish stock that I had stashed in the freezer but a good quality vegetable stock will do the job here too." Picture: Chani Anderson.

Is there anything more comforting than a big pot of soup bubbling away on the stove?

When I cook at home I like to maximise my time in the kitchen, cooking two to three meals at once. I’ll fill the inactive cooking time with chopping, portioning, making and taking stock.
