Mussels in Wine - Chinese style

I have got some beautiful New Zealand green mussels from the market. On these raining days, a bowl of warm messels soup is so comforting. Since it is a weekday dinner, I am going to make it super simple & fast. If you do not have mussels, you can replace it with La-La (one type of local clamps).

This is how I make the super fast mussels soup in Chinese wine.

Ingredients:
1 cup of water
6 ea of mussels
Some gingers
half cup of wine (Chinese cooking wine/ optional - white wine)
Salt & pepper
Some spring onion & small red berry

Method:
Boil the water, gingers, wine.
Then add in the mussels. Boil it. Just be careful not to simmer too long.
Before turn off the fire, add in a dash of salt/pepper/ spring onion & red berries.
