ingredients
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 yellow onions, chopped
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2/3 cup low-salt chicken broth or fish stock
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, (more if desired)
2 pounds mussels, scrubbed and debearded
OR
48 clams, scrubbed
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
directions
In a large, heavy-based skillet or saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and onion and saute over moderate heat, stirring often, until soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
Add the salt, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne; stir to distribute the spices evenly. Cook the spices for about 1 minute.
Add the broth or stock, the coconut milk, and the lemon juice and bring to a boil. Add the mussels or clams. Cover the pan until the shellfish open, about 5 to 8 minutes. (Discard any mussels or clams that don't open after cooking.) Serve with your favorite rice or noodles.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I used a combination of mussels and clams in this. Really loved this recipe. It's a light dish and ready in almost no time at all. I also used the "lite" coconut milk to save on a few calories. The spices in this are about perfect. Unless you have an aversion to one of them I wouldn't tweak them - they really worked nicely. I served this with couscous.
