Description
I use 15 plump NZ half shell mussels for this recipe …. The Sauce is so good you will find yourself cooking this dish just for the sauce … Have some fresh crusty bread handy … Fish can also be baked in this sauce and is equally delicious … Stores at Capalaba West, Durack and Strathpine stores Open 7 Days a week …. Great Ideas in Seafood ….
