Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ cup parsley, chopped
  • ½ medium red onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 10-16 clams
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 large kale leaves, chopped
  • 400g spaghetti
  • freshly ground salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add parsley, onions and garlic. Sauté until onions have softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the clams and mix all ingredients thoroughly. Add 2 cups of water and allow to boil softly. When the clam shells have opened, drain the water and set aside. If any clams are not open, discard them.
  3. Cook your spaghetti according to the instructions on the box. Drain the water and place the pot on a very low heat. Add the clams, the juice of half a lemon, the chopped kale leaves and the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Serve with freshly cracked salt and pepper, and a wedge of lemon. Garnish with parsley if you'd like.
