-Slowly and gently fry Thai curry paste in the oil for approx 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic, chilli and cook for further 1-2 minutes.

-Turn the heat to a high temperature. Add the clams, stir quickly then in goes the water. Close the lid for approx 1 minute.

-Open the lid then add the sauce mixture and basil, stir well and close the lid. Wait until the shells are opened. Usually, it should take no longer than 2 minutes.

-Discard the clams that shells are closed.

-That’s it, Thai Stir-fried Clams is ready to serve. It’s lovely with Thai Jasmine Rice.

 

 

Tip:

-Buy the fresh clams and ask the fishmonger/s if they have washed them.

-Usual cooking time is between 3-5 minutes depends on the size and amount of the clams. So be organise and keep an eye on the pan as Clams are very quick to be cooked. You do not want to overcook them.
