CAREYS BAY SHELLFISH BOWL

Ingredients
Preferred measurement of units
- Littleneck clams x 8
- Otago Queen Scallops x 8
- Tuatua x 4
- Green Lipped Mussels x 6 (We also like to use large whelks when we can get them)
- 50 grams fresh sliced ginger
- 6 stalks of coriander
- 1 red chilli, seeds out, sliced
- 20mls dry white wine
- 10 grams butter
- 50mls fresh cream
(This dish is naturally salty so needs no seasoning)
Method
A fragrant meal of local shellfish for one or a light snack for two served with fresh ciabatta bread and spoons to drink up the creamy broth!
Place Shellfish into a suitable size pot and add ginger, chilli, coriander, butter and wine. With the lid on, steam the shellfish until boiling point then lower the heat and add the fresh cream, heat gently for three minutes and serve in a deep bowl.
