Saturday Lunch at Home

I felt like having vongole pasta, so I went to the nearby market and bought 1.5kg worth of clams (albeit of the la-la variety) for $3 a kilo. Scrubbed them one by one with a scouring pad to get rid of the dirt on the shells (there was plenty!) and soaked them in salt water to get them to open up and get rid of the sand.

Chopped up some garlic and fried it in olive oil (not EVO), before adding the clams and some South Australian Chardonnay. I also had some lovely huge frozen Hokkaido scallops which I threw in as well.

Result: A very satisfying lunch : )
