Method
Take sheets of foil 18"x 18" and fold them in half.
Place them flat on your work surface, add equal amounts of mussels, top with the orange slices and the thyme.
Season well with sea salt and fresh black pepper.
Mix the garlic with the cream and wine, twist together the edges of the foil to seal it as a loose parcel, remember to leave plenty of room inside the parcel as the mussels need lots of space when they open.
Leave a 1" gap before the end, this is where you pour in the cream and the twist to seal.
Now sit these parcels onto a baking tray and place into the oven for 20 minutes.
Carefully remove from the oven and sit them in large bowls.
Let your guests open the parcels themselves and pour the goodies into the bowls.
Make sure there is a basket of crusty bread on the table and another bottle of wine in the fridge.
