- Add the mussels to the pan. Discard any that are open and won't close when you tap them sharply. Add the Guinness and bring to the boil.Turn down the heat to simmer and place the lid on the pan. Leave for 3-5 minutes or until the mussells have opened from the steam.
- Remove from the pan and discard any unopened mussels. Add the cream and remaining herbs. Check the seasoning.
- Serve hot with bread and butter and a nice rocket salad with a crisp glass of Chardonnay.
