1 tbsp butter
2 dl white wine
3 clove garlic
1 handful fresh parsley

Method

Scrub the mussels and check that they are tightly closed or close when tapped.
Discard any mussels that do not close.
Finely chop the onion and leek, and sauté in butter until the onion is soft, but not browned.
Add the mussels, cover with a lid, and steam for 3-4 minutes.
Shake the pot so that the shells at the bottom rise to the top.
Continue steaming for another 3-4 minutes until the shells have opened.
Discard any shells that do not open after steaming.
Add white wine and finely chopped garlic. Shake the pot and bring to a boil.
Finely chop parsley and add just before serving.
Serve with bread on the side.
