Seafood season is upon us and this a dish I always love ordering at Cambodian/Chinese restaurants when they have it! ➡️ Recipe: Thai Basil Clams Serves 4 Ingredients— 3 lbs manila clams 2 jalapeños, thick sliced 1 small onion, 1/2 inch cubes 5-6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced 1/3 cup fresh Thai basil (5-6 stems) washed, picked and cleaned 2 tbsp oyster sauce 1/2 tbsp fish sauce 1/2 tsp sugar 1 tsp chicken boullion 1/2 cup chicken stock or water 1 tbsp cornstarch for soaking clams Cooking oil Slurry— 2 1/2 tbsp cornstarch 3 tbsp water 1. Scrub clams to rid of any dirt. Then in a large bowl, add 1 tbsp cornstarch and fill with water to soak clams for at least 15 mins. This cleans the clams and draws out sand and more dirt. Rinse thoroughly with water and drain. Set aside. 2. In a small bowl combine oyster sauce, fish sauce, sugar, chicken bouillon and water. Mix well and set aside. 3. In a large pan, heat oil and stir fry onions and garlic until aromatic. About 1 min. 3. Add rinsed and drained clams to pan and give it a good stir. Cover and steam on med-high heat for 5-6 mins or until the clam shells have opened up and are cooked. 4. Uncover lid. Working quickly, move clams to the side, exposing the sauce/liquid. Add cornstarch slurry and stir into sauce to thicken. 5. Lastly, add Thai basil and mix until combined and aromatic. It should only take about 30 seconds-1 min. Serve with rice or eat by itself. Enjoy! Who else is guilty of grocery shopping while hungry? 🤭 #clams #thaibasilclams #seafood #clamrecipe #thaifood #easyrecipe #cambodianfood #chinesefood #recipe
