Clams with garlic, chili and parsley
Ten minutes start to finish, and the broth the clams make is worth more than the sauce you would have made instead.

Method
6 steps · 20 minutes
- Sit the clams in cold salted water for 20 minutes so they spit out their grit, then lift them out rather than pouring — the sand stays at the bottom.
- Throw away any that stay open when tapped.
- Warm the sliced garlic and chili in the oil over low heat for 2 minutes. It must not brown; burnt garlic turns the whole dish bitter.
- Turn the heat up, add the wine and let it boil hard for 1 minute.
- Add the clams, cover, and steam 4 minutes, shaking the pan once, until they have all opened.
- Stir in the parsley off the heat, discard any that stayed shut, and serve in the broth.
