Tips:

1. Choose ripe tomatoes as much as possible.

2. It is best to choose mussel shells in the same direction, beautifully arranged.

3. For ketchup, choose unsweetened pure ketchup, not the kind that is dipped in French fries. Each tomato sauce has a different amount of salt, so use salt as appropriate.

4. The side dishes can be chosen as you like and change at will.
