Mussels with balsamic tomatoes
I made these mussels with balsamic tomatoes using cleaned & cooked mussels, but you can use fresh ones too if you prefer. Just add them to the caramelized tomatoes at the end together with a drop of water, then put a lid on, and steam for about 3-5 minutes. Serve with salad or with aperitif or as a starter at a dinner party.
Ingredients
Method
- 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.
