Steps:
- Clean and d-beard the mussels. discard any that don't open when tapped. Melt the butter in a large stockpot. Add the shallots, celery, leek and bay leaves and cook until softened (but not brown). Add the mussels, half the parsley, thyme and freshly ground black pepper, and stir well. Add the wine, bring to the boil, then cover the pan and steam the mussels for around five minutes, or for as long as it takes for the mussels to open and cook. Pour in the cream and stir well. (I find it easier to scoop the mussels out with a slotted spoon, then add the cream...) Discard any mussels that are not open. Serve in large bowls, sprinkled with remaining parsley. Don't forget to put out a bowl for empty shells!
