Steps:
- Heat broiler. Put olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper and let sizzle for 30 seconds without browning. Add the mussels, stir to coat and increase heat to high. Add the wine or water, and put on lid. After 2 minutes, give the mussels a stir, then replace lid and continue cooking until all mussels have opened, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Paint cut sides of the baguette pieces with oil and place cut side up under broiler to toast. Rub toasts with the remaining garlic cloves.
- Stir the chopped parsley into the mussels, then ladle mussels and broth into bowls. Serve with the garlic toasts.

MUSSELS IN LIGHT BROTH
Rasam, as prepared in most homes in Southern India, uses either tamarind or tomatoes as the base. One night when I was a teenager, I was out to dinner with my brother Tom in New York City's Little Italy and ate mussels cooked in a light tomato broth very reminiscent of rasam. I couldn't wait to get home, buy fresh mussels, and cook them in rasam.

MUSSELS IN WINE BROTH
Never having cooked mussels before I saw this easy recipe. I served it to my guests who loved it. I found it so simple and yet they thought I had put so much time and effort into it! It worked a treat with raves from everyone! I use white wine but try to use a spicy one it makes the broth tastier.

Steps:
- Just before cooking ~.
- Give the mussels a good scrub and rinse to remove any excess grit, make sure that they have already had their beards trimmed (if not then trim the beards with a pair of sharp scissors.) The mussels should be firmly closed. If any are open, give them a tap and see if they close. If they do not close, discard them.
- Using a large pot, melt the butter over a low heat. Add the shallots, garlic, chilie, and salt (optional.) Cook gently until the onions, garlic and chilie are softened. This could take up to 5 minutes or more. Be careful to watch closely at this stage making sure the butter or the onions do not start to brown. They must be translucent.
- Add the wine and zest and increase the heat. Boil until reduced by half. Doing this makes a rich broth. Add the mussels and season lightly with pepper. Stir and then cover the pot with a lid.
- After 2 minutes check the dish. Remove the mussels that have opened and transfer to serving bowl. Keep cooking the mussels in the pot still at a boil, removing them as they open. If there are any mussels that will not open discard them.
- Pour the broth over the bowl of mussels, sprinkle the dish with chopped parsley.
- Serve mussels in separate bowls with a good serving of broth, a wedge of lemon and a slice of thick crusty bread.
- NOTES.
- When you get the mussels home, remove them from any plastic and place the mussels in a bowl (this helps them to breathe.) Cover them with a clean, damp tea towel or cloth and refrigerate. Kept this way they should keep for two days.

Steps:
- Crush the coriander stems in a mortar using a pestle, then put into a large pan with the coconut milk, lemongrass and ginger. Bring to the boil and simmer for 4 mins. Add the lime leaves and chillies, then stir in the coconut cream.
- Add the mussels and fish sauce, then cover with an ill-fitting lid or baking tray so that the mussels can steam, but the broth won't boil over and make a mess of your stove. Bring the liquid back to the boil, then simmer for a few mins, shaking the pot every so often so the mussels move around and open up - this should take about 3-5 mins.
- When all the mussels are open, add the lime juice but don't boil again. Taste, and if you like it, good - otherwise add more chilli for heat, more lime for sourness and more fish sauce if you think it needs salt. Spoon into bowls and sprinkle with the coriander leaves to serve.
