This is so easy and inexpensive.
Heat a deep pan with ¼ cup oil until almost smoking. Stir-fry all at once one large sliced onion, one tsp crushed garlic, one tbsp crushed ginger, two sliced hot long chili peppers.
After one minute, add half a bottle of banana catsup and ½ cup beer. When the mixture boils, throw in the cleaned mussels and continue stir-frying until all the shells open.
Before serving, sprinkle with sesame oil. Garnish with green onions and/or wansuy.
