Vermicelli with clams

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 pounds Vermicelli (very thin spaghetti; substitute spaghetti if you wish)
2 pounds Small clams
1 Clove of garlic
A handful of parsley
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Directions

Leave the clams under cold running water for about an hour to remove any sand. Brush the shells well, and put the clams into a pan over moderate heat until they open. Remove the clams from their shells over a strainer so you don’t lose their liquid.

Finely chop the parsley and garlic and gently sauté it in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and add the clam liquid. Cook for a few minutes. Then add the clams and the cooked and drained vermicelli. Let everything cook together for a few minutes and serve.
