Fry until fragrant. Add the mussels, put the lid on the pan and cook for 5 minutes, or until all the mussels have opened.

Discard those mussels that do not open.

Cook the spaghetti following the package instructions until al dente. Add the spaghetti and toss with the mussels.

Serve in deep bowls, topped with plenty of freshly grated Parmesan.
