Preparation of the Dish
1.	Melt butter in a pan, and sauté thinly sliced shallots with a touch of salt and sugar for caramelization. Add flour and cook until it turns a golden brown hue. Pour in the cream, sprinkle with ground white pepper and a medley of Italian herbs. Allow the sauce to simmer until it reaches the desired thickness.
2.	In a separate pan, quickly sear the shrimp and pre-boiled mussels in olive oil – just 1 minute on each side. Transfer the seafood to the creamy sauce, stir gently, and let them simmer together for another 1-2 minutes.
3.	Upon serving, accompany the dish with a lime wedge and a sprinkle of finely chopped cilantro.
