Ingredients List
1.2 kg mussels, cleaned and debearded
2 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
200 ml dry white wine
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Steps
Clean and debeard the mussels, discarding any that remain open after a gentle tap.
Heat olive oil in a large, deep pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion, cooking until softened and fragrant.
Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Add the mussels to the pan, cover with a lid, and steam for 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the mussels open.
Discard any mussels that remain closed. Stir in the butter and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Sprinkle the dish with chopped parsley and serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping.
