Baked Clams on a bed of Enoki Mushrooms 奶油金針菇烤蛤蠣

This is a dish that I created a while ago for a BBQ party. I used aluminum foil to wrap the enoki mushrooms and the clams back then. It was such a hit with minimum effort!! I was so proud of myself! :p Now I place them in a nice looking bakeware and bake it in the oven when we need a simple side dish or appetizer to impress our guests!

Serving size: 2

Ingredients:

  • Olive oil x 1 tbsp
  • Butter x 1 tbsp
  • Garlic x 2~3 cloves (thinly sliced)
  • Enoki mushroom x 2 packs
  • Salt x a tiny pinch

Recipe:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F.

  2. Heat up the pan with medium high heat, and add in olive oil & butter together until slightly sizzling.

  3. Turn down the heat to low and add in garlic until the edge of the garlic turn into light yellow.

  4. Add in enoki mushroom and sauté with a pinch of salt.

  5. Plate the sautéed enoki mushroom as the bed in an ovenproof pan, place the clams on top of the enoki mushrooms.

  6. Put in the oven for 10 mins or until all the clams are cooked and opened up.

  7. Enjoy it !

Take away tips:

  1. Put together the olive oil and butter will bring up the boiling point so that butter won't be burned easily.

  2. If the clam doesn’t open up after a while, it's a bad one. DO NOT EAT THE STUBBORN UNOPENED CLAMS.

  3. You need a pan with some depth for this dish, cuz clams and enoki mushrooms both will release juice while cooking.

  4. This dish goes perfectly well with white wine!
