Melt the butter in a large saucepan on medium heat and add the onions. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened but not brown.

Add the mussels, garlic, wine, bay leaves, thyme and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and bring to the boil. Cook for 5-8 minutes until or until the mussels have opened.

Remove the opened mussels with a slotted spoon and transfer to a warm bowl and cover to keep warm. Discard any that haven’t opened.

Strain the liquid into a pan and bring to the boil. Add the parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
