Heat olive oil in a large pan and sauté onions, fennel, chorizo, chilli, ground fennel seeds, and garlic.

Add paprika, thyme, saffron, bay leaves, and tomatoes then cook until the mixture reduces to a thick sauce.

Pour in the fish stock and white wine then bring the liquid to a simmer.

Add the cleaned mussels and cook until they have all opened.

Discard any closed mussels then add the fried fish pieces and ground almonds to the stew.

Heat for two minutes and serve with lemon wedges, steamed potatoes, and seasonal greens.
