Method

Step 1 of 3

Heat the oil in a large pan over a low heat. Add the onion, fennel, and a pinch of salt, then sweat for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and potatoes, and cook for a few minutes more, being careful not to allow it to brown at all.

Step 2 of 3

Pour in the stock, and bring to the boil. Add the coconut milk, reduce the heat slightly, and simmer gently for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked. Bring back to the boil, add the mussels, and put a lid on the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes, until all the mussels are open (discard any that do not).

Step 3 of 3

To serve, stir through the basil, taste the broth, and season if needed. Serve immediately.
