Description
This dish of mussels with cream and herbs is a real delight, perfect for a quick and tasty dinner. I love preparing this recipe, because it is simple and always appreciated. The mussels, cooked in a broth flavored with white wine, bay leaf and thyme, are coated in a creamy and lemony sauce. A real treat! Accompanied by crispy fries, it's a complete and convivial meal. Don't hesitate to add a pinch of chili to enhance the taste. Ideal for an evening with friends or a family meal.
