Australian blue mussels with tomato and chilli sauce
This easy meal can be prepared by even the most novice of home cooks, takes only 10 minutes from start to finish and serves 2 adults.
My wife doesn’t like chilli and she doesn’t even taste it in this recipe, don’t be afraid to use it if you’re the same. Alternatively load up if you love the hot stuff……….
