Red Curry Clams

Notes
You can adjust the amount of stock and coconut milk based on how much broth you want with your clams. We'd recommend starting with 1 Tbsp of fish sauce and increasing to taste from there. And here's a few notes about prepping clams.
Ingredients
- 5 lbs Manila clams
- 2 Tbsp chopped ginger
- 2 Tbsp chopped garlic
- 4 Tbsp red curry paste
- 2 cans coconut milk (full fat unsweetened)
- 2-3 cups veggie stock
- Fish sauce to taste
- 4-5 lime leaves
- Cilantro to taste
Procedure
Sauté ginger and garlic. Stir in curry paste until fragrant. Pour in coconut milk and veggie stock and bring to a low simmer. Add fish sauce to taste. Add lime leaves. Stir in clams and cook until clams open up. Remove lime leaves or give everyone a heads up to look out for them. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
