1. Scrub the mussels under running water and remove the beards with your fingers. Tap all of the mussels with open shells. If the shell doesn’t close, throw the mussel away.
2. In a large stockpot, melt the coconut oil on medium heat. Add the green onions and garlic and cook for roughly 3 minutes, until you can smell the garlic.
3. Add the tomato, ginger, lime juice and zest, cayenne pepper, lemongrass stalk, coconut milk and tamari. Bring to a boil.
4. Once the broth is boiling, add the mussels and stir well to coat. Lower the heat to medium low and cook for roughly 6-10 minutes, until all of the mussels have opened. If there are any mussels that have remain closed, throw them away.
5. Place the mussels into serving dishes and top with broth and garnish with cilantro.
