Steamed Chilli Mussels in Tomato Sauce
Report
Steamed Chilli Mussels in Tomato Sauce without wine, a delightful appetizer that looks posh enough to be served at a fancy restaurant. It's really quick and easy to make with a handful of ingredients like garlic, flaked chilli peppers, Sichuan peppers, tomatoes, butter, olive oil and parsley, and, the very star of this dish, fresh mussels. So simple, absolutely delicious!
