Method
-
step 1
Heat the wine in a large pan with the parsley stalks and onion. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Add the mussels, put the lid on and cook for 4 minutes, shaking the pan every minute, until the mussels have just opened.
-
step 2
Drain through a colander into a bowl and leave to cool for a few minutes until you can handle them.
-
step 3
Mix the lemon zest, juice, chopped parsley leaves, garlic and breadcrumbs, 1 tbsp oil and season. Open the mussel shells fully, pull apart and discard the empty half. Throw away any that won’t open.
-
step 4
Put the mussels attached to the half shells onto a baking tray, mussel-side up. Scatter the crumbs over them and grill for 1 minute until the crumbs are golden and crunchy. Serve with more lemon to squeeze over.
