Mussels with String Beans

1 box of frozen Mussels
1 bag of string beans (remove tips)
2 cans of coconut milk (unsweetened if from the can)
1 cup water
1 small onion, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Optional: 1 lemon

Heat oil up in a stock pot. Saute onions. Place mussels into stock pot. Add water, coconut milk, butter (lemon juice) and bring to a simmer. After 5 minutes drop string beans into pot to cook. Cover and let cook for 15 minutes or until mussels are cooked. Add salt and pepper to taste. You can add more butter if you like to get that really rich flavor. Serve with white rice
