Clean the mussels and steam them in a large pan with a little water until open.

Discard unopened mussels and set the rest aside with their juices.

Soften the onions, garlic, ginger, and chillies in a frying pan with olive oil.

Stir in the vinegar, sugar, and fish sauce, then simmer for 3 minutes.

Add the mussels and juices to the pan and stir until coated.

Squeeze in the lime juice, mix in the herbs, and serve immediately.
