Sounds Delicious & once I get home I am going to make this for sure! Saldy I am @ school with NO stove top!!! -
These are very good. I used about 1 kilo of mussels instead of clams. I think what was missing for us was some fresh herbs thrown in at the end. Other than that a definite keeper. Thanks for posting. -
I thought this recipe was absolutely terrific for something so easy to cook. The second time around I used mussels rather than clams because they are available in better quality locally and enjoyed it even more than the clams.
