    1 To prepare mussels, scrub shells under cold running water. Remove any beards from shells.

    2 In a pan large enough for mussels, place onions, garlic, ginger, chillies and three-quarters of the coriander. Add wine and water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 2 minutes.

    3 Add mussels to pan. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook over a moderate heat. Shake pan occasionally until shells open. Discard any mussels which remain closed. Turn mussels into a colander, keeping the liquid.

    4 Return liquid to pan with spread. Whisk. Add remaining coriander. Serve.
