Background

I made these mussels with balsamic tomatoes with cleaned and ready-cooked mussels, but you can use fresh one too if you prefer. Just add them to the tomatoes at the end - put a lid on and stem for about 3/5 minutes. Serve with salad or with aperitif or as a starter at a dinner party.

Ingredients

150g cleaned, cooked mussels
1 red onion
2 cloves of garlic
1 tsp capers, from jar
½ chilli, deseeded
150g mixed baby tomatoes ( yellow, orange and red)
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp chopped flat parsley leaves
Salt and pepper

Instructions

Finely slice the onion, chilli and garlic.
Heat 1 spoonful of olive oil in a frying pan and gently cook the onion until it softens. Add the garlic, chilli and capers. Cook for another minute.
Cut the tomatoes in half, then add to the pan together with the balsamic vinegar. Cook for about 3 minutes or until the tomatoes and onion start caramelizing.
Add the mussels and cook for another couple of minutes to warm them through.
Season to taste, then scatter the parsley on top and serve.
