1

Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and boil for 2 minutes.

2

Finely slice the garlic and roughly chop the parsley, reserving the stems.

3

Meanwhile, heat a large pan with the olive oil, garlic and parsley stems. As soon as the garlic starts to sizzle add 2-3 tbsp water. Remove the garlic and parsley from the pan and discard.

4

Add the clams and cover the pan with a lid. Allow to steam for 5 minutes, shaking the pan every now and then or until the clams are all open. Immediately remove the clams from the pan and set aside leaving the sauce in the pan.

5

After two minutes, add the spaghetti to the sauce and bring to a simmer. Add a small ladle of the hot spaghetti water to the pan, continue to simmer on a high heat. The spaghetti will absorb the water, then add another ladle. Cook for 4 minutes until al dente.

6

Divide the spaghetti between serving dishes, top with the clams and chopped parsley and season with pepper.
