For the sauce
• 1 head of fennel
• 500ml of white cooking wine

• 2 gloves of garlic – peeled
• 2 shallots peeled and roughly chopped
For the mussels
• 1 leek (julienned)

Method:
In a saucepan place your fennel, garlic, shallots and white cooking wine. Place on the stove and reduce by half. Add your double cream and bring your mixture back up to the boil. Once boiling, remove from the heat and pass through a sieve into a separate saucepan. Place to the side whilst preparing your mussels.
