Servings: persons

3 pounds mussels washed and the beards removed
1 onion medium, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic peeled and crushed
5 pieces pancetta sliced into pieces
2 tablespoons butter
1 bottle Irish ale
4 tablespoons cream
1/4 cup chopped parsley freshly
salt
freshly ground black pepper

1
Discard any mussels that are open before cooking and any that stay closed after cooking.
2
Place a large pot over a high heat and brown the pancetta pieces until just golden and sizzling. Add in a knob of butter, allow it to melt and then add the onion and garlic. Cook gently for three minutes until the onion is soft.
3
Add in the cider and allow to bubble away for a few minutes so all the flavours mingle in together. Tumble in the mussels, cover with a lid and allow them to steam for about four minutes until they open, making sure to give the pot a good shake once or twice during the cooking time.
4
Remove from the heat and stir in the cream and parsley and season with sea salt and ground black pepper.
5
Serve with some crusty bread to mop up the liquid!
