Preparation
- Rinse clams individually in cold water to remove all sand. Drain.
- Put oil and garlic in a large casserole or Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid. When hot, add the clams and one-half cup of wine. Cover closely and cook about five minutes, shaking skillet to redistribute the clams.
- When the clams have started to open, add the pepper flakes, scallions and parsley. Cover and cook briefly until all the clams have opened.
- Blend the cornstarch with the two remaining tablespoons of wine and stir it into the sauce.
- Meanwhile, put the frozen peas into a small sieve. Run under very hot water about 15 seconds, just until the peas separate. Add the peas to the clams, heat and serve.
