1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

5 tablespoons thinly sliced garlic

Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 pounds mussels, cleaned and beards removed
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/3 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons minced chives
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard

Steps:

In a large Dutch oven or straight-sided 12-inch saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the white wine and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the mussels, cover and steam until open, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mussels to a large serving bowl.
Add the creme fraiche, parsley, butter, chives and mustard to the remaining cooking liquid and bring just to a boil while stirring to combine. Pour the sauce over the mussels. Serve with French fries.
