Directions
Soak clams or mussels in cold water for 1 hour and drain.
Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium heat.
Sauté leeks, garlic, onion, celery and mushrooms until onions are soft, about 5 minutes.
Add stock, tomato sauce, and wine.
Bring to simmer, and season with cayenne and salt to taste.
Add clams and mussels to pot if using.
When they are almost cooked, add fish and remaining seafood, and simmer until all is tender.
Garnish with parsley.
