Description
I use 15 plump NZ half shell mussels for this recipe …..Aussie Seafood Houses have them 15 for $8.99 cleaned and ready to go….The Sauce is so good you will find yourself cooking this dish just for the sauce…Have some 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 ….
