Today, PasGo will guide you through the simple process of making clams stir-fried with rice crackers, bringing out the rich countryside flavors for everyone to enjoy.
Clams stir-fried with rice crackers is a dish originating from the coastal region of Central Vietnam, served with thin, crispy rice crackers, grilled to perfection, and infused with delightful aromas, bringing an incredibly appealing taste. This dish is particularly suitable as a snack for gatherings with friends.
Ingredients:
- Fresh clams: 2kg
- Onion: ½ bulb
- Vietnamese coriander
- Seasonings: salt, seasoning powder, sugar, black pepper, satay sauce
- Rice crackers, roasted peanuts, white sesame seeds, cooking oil
How to Make Clams Stir-Fried with Rice Crackers:
- Clean the clams thoroughly and soak them in diluted saltwater 3-4 times, each time for about 30 minutes.
- After soaking, rinse the clams again with clean water.
- Place a pot of water on the stove, add a teaspoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil, then add the clams to the pot. After about 1 minute, the clams will separate and float to the surface.
Step 2:
- Scoop out all the clam meat and rinse it again with clean water, then drain.
- Wash Vietnamese coriander thoroughly, then finely chop.
- Peel and wash the onions, then dice them into small pieces.
- Roast peanuts until golden brown, then remove the outer shell.
Step 3:
- Place a pan on the stove, add cooking oil, and turn on high heat. Once the oil is hot, briefly stir-fry the onions.
- Next, add the clams and stir-fry until the clams firm up and the water evaporates.
- Add 2 tablespoons of satay sauce, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, finely chopped Vietnamese coriander, roasted peanuts, and white sesame seeds. Stir well to let the clams absorb the seasonings, then turn off the heat.
- Serve the cooked clams onto a deep plate and enjoy hot with rice crackers.
Important Note:
- To ensure you extract all the clam meat without any loss, stir evenly during boiling to allow the clams at the bottom to release all their meat.
- If you want your rice crackers to be hotter and crispier, you can microwave them for about 1 minute after purchasing.
