Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Mussels

    Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells with a brush to remove any dirt or debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Parsley

    Chop the fresh parsley and set aside for garnish.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Onion and Garlic

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn it.

  2. 5

    Add Wine and Mussels

    Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover with a lid, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the mussels have opened.

  3. 6

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Once the mussels are opened, reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow it to simmer for an additional 2 minutes. Gradually add the grated parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and well combined.

  4. 7

    Season the Sauce

    Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in half of the chopped parsley.

  5. 8

    Serve

    Ladle the mussels and sauce into bowls, and garnish with the remaining parsley. Serve with crusty bread on the side for dipping.
