Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup onion finely chopped
1 medium garlic clove peeled and minced
3/4 cup white wine dry
1 teaspoon oregano dried, crushed
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
28 ounces tomatoes, canned peeled, diced, undrained
1 cup water
1 pound mussels washed, beards removed
2 cups pasta, rotelle (8 ounces)
1/2 cup parsley leaves finely chopped
3/4 cup feta cheese crumbled
1 x black pepper freshly ground, to taste

Directions

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Stir in the undrained tomatoes and water.

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer 15 minutes.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta.

Prepare the mussels.
