3 cloves of garlic

½ tsp dried or fresh red chilli, chopped

Defrost frozen mussels.

In a frying pan, add two tablespoons of olive oil. Chuck in the onion, garlic and chilli, and sauté until soft, but not browned. Add the tomatoes and chicken ham and simmer for 10 minutes until you have a nice, thick sauce.
