Great video. I watched about 3 videos before stumbling here. I loved that its local so I know I have all those spices and I can actually understand what you're saying🤭! 💯

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Olwethu ! Im happy you enjoyed the episode , share some photos with us on facebook 😃🍲

[@Gunner_182]

Recognised that accent 0.5 seconds into the video. Food looks great!

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Thanks scuba steve !! Proudly South-african 😂

[@nogolnoroozian4812]

I made this for lunch today, and Oh my goodness it was amazing. I added mushrooms to mine as well ☺️

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

That sounds absolutely amazing !! 🍄

[@anrikedevos6243]

Omw!!! That looks absolutely deadly... Is it weird that I can smell the yum 😍

[@aishaabisheva1914]

Hi, have a quick question: tub of cream, it’s a regular heavy cream, am I right?

[@michaelharmse3936]

Hi Aisha , yes heavy cream as well as a tub of creme fraiche , the cultured cream 😀

You made this look easy and clear, love it !Needed this recipe for my upcoming picnic 😁

Were happy to help Rose ! Check out some of our other recipes perhaps some chicken wings they do make great finger food 🔥🔥

I'm also from SA Johannesburg love the recipe

[@Wholet_thisdiva_in]

I tried this recipe ... It's fantastic ! Better than any mussel pot from a restaurant. Thank you for sharing!

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Always a pleasure Talia ! 🔥😃 thanks for watching , more fun content coming soon

[@Wholet_thisdiva_in]

@@MikesGourmetKitchen That's great to hear! Great chef!

[@michellecolledge2355]

when was the garlic added???

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Michelle, garlic can be added when reducing the cream ! :)

[@normacoope8239]

Looks delicious, will give this a try

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hope you enjoy it Norma ! more videos coming soon

[@leaniswart8125]

Very helpful, thanks. Looks delicious

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

My pleasure 😊

[@maylee386]

What powder do you add to the cream?

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi there Maylee , it is self raising flour 😃

[@MMIST7]

Can I substitute creme fresh with sour cream ?

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Millie M ! Id recommend using normal cream , sour cream might make the mussels taste foul 😃

[@sureshmothi6480]

Did you put the garlic. When do you put the garlic.

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Suresh ! You can add two tbsp of Garlic when you add the creme Fraiche 😀

[@colleenangeline2207]

Mike can't cook. He just nows how to upload videos 😂😂😂

[@christogiani5808]

Awesome cooking

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Thanks Christo, we've got some more great content on the way ! 😬

[@zoegirl2948]

Very nice but too rich For those of us who have cholesterol issues use 1pkt Knorr mushroom soup with 2 cups of milk add the garlic and parsley. Make the soup and add the mussels equally good. Bon appetit

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Great tip! Thanks Zoe , will maybe release a video in future that takes all those aspects into consideration , Cheers !

[@ls-888]

Should be more concerned of what's in that Knorr soup. Cholesterol BAD is big pharma propaganda; the brain is made up of 35% cholesterol that it makes from the food that you eat, every cell in the body has a cholesterol membrane to keeps it intact,sun turns cholesterol into vitamin/hormone D,and hundreds of other molecules vital to health and life.

Will be doing one on Sunday, Thanks.

I loved it wanna try that

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Definitly Mary give it a try ! Tag us on instagram @mikesgourmetkitchen 😬😬

[@eileenventer7575]

Garlic mussels, recipe should good but when do you put the garlic in?

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi There Eileen ! You can add the garlic when the cream has started to thicken up 😀

[@colleenangeline2207]

He didn't add any garlic! 😂 He was so busy adding 750 grams of fat to 1000 grams of mussels 😂😂. If you subtract the weight of the shells, that leaves maybe 500 gr of mussels. Phew! Then on top another 500gr gouda cheese!! South Africans who eat this regularly must be soooo fat and having heart disease! 😅

[@tribalpeacock]

can i use milk if i don't have cream?

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Tribalpeacock , wouldnt recommend using milk , alternatively you can make a bechamel with some butter, flour and then add some milk for consistency 😃

[@jaysonsalum7840]

Can I use Philadelphia creme cheese instead of cream fresh?

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Jayson , i think it might work , just be careful not to cook it too long the philadelphia might separate into oil and cream and form clumps 👊🍺

[@sincerethunderstorm9317]

What is tub cream?

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi there sincere , Tub creme is Creme Fraìche which is cultured cream , but you can use normal double thick cooking cream as well 😀

[@vanessagrier7384]

I use to eat a dish almost like this in Biloxi just it was more of a Cajun style

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Brian, that sounds great ! I know they prepare delicious Cajun style shrimp at Biloxi shrimp Co.

Hi Ashne 😀 you add the garlic when adding the creme fraiche we had a bit of technical issues with the footage back then

[@happymv5350]

YUM!!!

[@briggettelacomba9054]

Cream what? I can’t understand

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Briggette , it is called creme Fraiche or cultured cream, its a very thick pure cream used to enrich dishes if youre in South-Africa or europe you can purchase it from SPAR or woolworths , hope it helps 😀

You posted creamy garlic mussels . But you didn't put any garlic !!! You only made garlic bread ! 👎👎👎👎

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Adel we do apologize this video was shot a long time ago when we just started the channel 😀 the garlic was added when we made the creme fraiche and cream mixture , i hope this helps ! feel free to try out some of our later content for more recipes

[@lastchocoltatedrop492]

I’m guessing creme fresh is sour cream

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Lastchocolate , creme fraiche is not sour cream , creme fraiche is cultured and ideal for cooking. Sour cream forms lumps when heated up , a good substitute for creme fraiche is pouring cream 😀

[@wackjob7]

@@MikesGourmetKitchen don't apologize. Just tell them what you really wanted to reply. That, fuck off we forgot the garlic.

[@deconradie]

No garlic in your recepy!

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi deconradie , we cut some of the footage , you can add it when you add the cream 😀

[@katoosh1]

No Garlic like the title suggests

[@colleenangeline2207]

Mike, your recipe is really extremely fatty. I love cream, but without garlic to help keep the heart and arteries healthy, and without a scrap of parsley, your mussel recipe is a recipe for heart disaster! Go have a look how Germans or the French cook mussels. Much more balanced, and still very delicious!

[@MikesGourmetKitchen]

Hi Colleen , i agree it is quite fattening and not the healthiest option , but its based on a recipe from a South-African restaurant group that people seem to love , we have made them the french way before also 😃
