Name: Clamaghetti Out Of The Storecupboard
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 10 oz can baby clams (I prefer tiny whole ones to the chopped kind); 2 generous glugs olive oil, so the oil pools in the bottom of the pan when you tip it; 4 or 5 large cloves garlic; 2 handfuls mushrooms, chunked (this could be one portobello or 4-5 smaller mushrooms of whatever sort); 1 dash red pepper flakes, to taste; 1 shallot, if you have one; 1/2 cup vermouth or white wine; 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (you need a hefty amount; you can add chives, basil, tarragon, and use cilantro or even arugula if your parsely is low).); fresh parmesan (I wouldn't do this with fresh clams but like it with this); 1/2 box (or more or less, for a guest or two)spaghetti or linguini

Servings: persons

1 10 oz can baby clams (I prefer tiny whole ones to the chopped kind)
2 generous glugs olive oil, so the oil pools in the bottom of the pan when you tip it
4 or 5 large cloves garlic
2 handfuls mushrooms, chunked (this could be one portobello or 4-5 smaller mushrooms of whatever sort)
1 dash red pepper flakes, to taste
1 shallot, if you have one
1/2 cup vermouth or white wine
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (you need a hefty amount; you can add chives, basil, tarragon, and use cilantro or even arugula if your parsely is low).)
fresh parmesan (I wouldn't do this with fresh clams but like it with this)
1/2 box (or more or less, for a guest or two)spaghetti or linguini

1
Put your pasta water on to boil. Chop up mushrooms, garlic, shallot, parsley. Open the can of clams. This goes quickly.
2
Heat olive oil in good size pan, ideally your favorite cast iron one. Add garlic and shallot, let them soften a bit. Add mushrooms and fry till they start emitting their juices. Add red pepper flakes and stir. Pour in the wine and drain the juice from the clams into the pan, holding back the clams themselves. Let this simmer a bit to engage the flavors.
3
Cook your pasta and when it is just about al dente drain it. Now add the actual clams and parsley to the sauce and stir, then dump the spaghetti into your pan and mix it into the sauce and let it heat through for a minute or two.
4
Serve, adding pepper and parmesan at the table, as desired.
