1
Prepare the Mussels
Rinse mussels under cold water and remove any beards or debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.
2
Sauté Aromatics
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped shallots, and sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
3
Add Wine and Mussels
Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add mussels, and cover the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes until mussels open.
4
Season and Garnish
Once mussels are cooked, season with salt and pepper. Stir in chopped parsley before serving.
5
Serve
Serve mussels hot with house frites on the side.
