Clams Steamed With Corn, Cider And Soy - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tbsp butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
4 oz chorizo, cut into small dice
1 cup fresh, frozen or canned corn kernels
2 1/2 lbs clams, rinsed under cold water
1/2 cup apple cider
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 None green onions, thinly sliced
None None Toasted ciabatta, to serve (optional)

Preparation

Melt butter in a large pot on medium heat. Add onion and chorizo for 5 mins, stirring. Stir in the corn kernels. Remove from heat.
Place the cleaned clams in another large pot. Add the cider and bring to a boil. Cover and steam for 4-5 mins or until clams just open (discard any that don't open). Drain clams in a colander and reserve the cooking liquid. Strain liquid through a fine sieve.
Place the onion mixture on medium heat. Cook for 2 mins. Add the cream, soy sauce and cooking liquid. Cook until reduced by half. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the clams and mix well.
Ladle into dishes. Garnish with green onions. Serve with toasted ciabatta, if desired.
