SPAGHETTI WITH CLAM SAUCE

Garlic, clam, and tomato spaghetti

Ingredients

• 8 cloves garlic, minced
• 60 ml clarified butter
• 700 g canned clams with juice (2 standard cans)
• 250 ml tomato paste (1 standard can)
• 500 g canned tomatoes, with liquid
• 5 ml parsley
• 5 ml oregano
• 5 ml salt
• 500 g spaghetti
• 15 ml cooking oil
• 50 g parmesan cheese, grated

Procedure

1. Sautae the garlic in 30 ml of clarified butter until lightly browned.
2. Stir in the clam juice, tomato paste, tomatoes and liquid, parsley and oregano. Simmer until reduced by about half.
3. Add the clams and remove from heat. This sauce should be reheated just prior to serving.
4. Cook and drain the spaghetti. In the empty cooking pot, melt the remaining clarified butter, and return the spaghetti to the pot and stir until coated uniformly.

Notes

You can use oil instead of clarified butter, at some sacrifice in flavor.
