4 Minute Mussels

Instructions

1. Rinse the mussels in some fresh water, place in a bowl full of water and leave to sit for 4-5 minutes.
2. Pick through and discard any mussels at this point which are not closed, drain the water from the mussels and set aside while you prep the sauce.
3. Heat the olive oil in a large pan (one which will fit all of your mussels!)
4. Roughly chop the garlic & chilli and add it to the pan to saute down for 2-3 minutes before adding the tomato passata and seasoning.
5. Next add the mussels to the pan,  mix until coated in the sauce before placing the lid on the pan and cooking for 4 minutes.
6. Serve and enjoy garnished with some chopped basil.
