Add sesame oil to skillet over medium heat. Add shallots, ginger, and garlic. Cook, stirring, until shallots are translucent, about 5 minutes. (Add 1 teaspoon water, if necessary, to prevent sticking.) Add fish stock, coconut milk, water, lime juice, and soy sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Add bok choy. Cook, covered, 4 minutes.
Add mussels and cook, covered, until mussels open and bok choy is tender, about 5 minutes longer. (Discard mussels that don’t open.) Divide mussels, bok choy, and potatoes among serving bowls. Ladle on coconut broth and garnish with cilantro.
