Preparation

STEP 1 OF 7
Remove the beards from the mussels and ensure they are all closed, discarding any that remain open after being tapped.
STEP 2 OF 7
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until they become soft and translucent.
STEP 3 OF 7
Add the sliced carrot to the sauté and cook for a couple of minutes.
STEP 4 OF 7
Add the mussels to the pot, stirring gently. Cover the pot with a lid and let cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the mussels to start opening.
STEP 5 OF 7
Once the mussels have opened, add the Gueuze beer, thyme, and bay leaf. Stir gently and cover the pot. Let cook for 5-7 minutes, until all the mussels are fully open.
STEP 6 OF 7
Add salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well.
STEP 7 OF 7
Remove the pot from the heat and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve the mussels with some of their broth and accompanied by slices of crusty bread.
