Ingredients
(Serves two-three)
500g clams
5 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tbsp salted butter
⅓ cup white wine
3 dried chilies
chopped Fresh parsley
chopped (for garnishing)
Salt to taste
Steps:
- To clean the clams, place clams in a large bowl and make sure they are well covered with water.
- Add 1 tbsp salt and leave for at least 30 mins to allow clams to purge our sand. Discard any clams that have opened. Wash then rinse and set aside.
- Melt butter in the pan.
- Add in chopped garlic and chopped Italian parsley stems (save the leaves for later).
- Sauté till fragrant but before garlic turns brown.
- Add in chopped dried chillis and clams.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt.
- Add in white wine and cover to steam for 8-10 mins.
- Discard any clams that still remain closed.
- Sprinkle chopped Italian parsley leaves on top and stir to let them wilt for a couple of seconds (this allows the fresh herb flavour to infuse in to the sauce).
- Serve with crusty bread, pasta or enjoy as is!
