Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Remove the seeds from the chili pepper and chop it coarsely. Remove the leaves from the thyme stems.
Step 2
Remove the leaves from the tarragon and basil stems. Finely chop them and set aside.
Step 3
Finely chop the basil stems.
Step 4
Clean the mussels from the edge membrane. If using vacuum-packed mussels, cleaning is not necessary.

In a wok, heat the olive oil and sauté the finely chopped onion and garlic for 2–3 minutes.
Step 6
Add the thyme leaves, chili, and chopped basil stems and sauté for another minute.
Step 7
Add the mussels and pour in the wine, adding warm water to cover all the mussels.
Step 8
Cook on high heat for 3 minutes after boiling. It is important not to overcook, as the mussels will become rubbery.

Step 10
Stir and plate the dish.
Step 11
Pour the broth on top and serve with fresh baguette.
