Instructions

  1. 1

    Purge cockles in salted water, then scrub shells clean.

  2. 2

    Blanch cockles in boiling water just until shells open.

  3. 3

    Make braising liquid with soy sauce, water, garlic, sugar, chili, and scallion.

  4. 4

    Simmer the cockles in the sauce over medium heat for 5–6 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish with sesame oil off the heat.

Tips

Avoid long cooking time; cockles turn rubbery quickly.
Balance soy sauce and water so the braise is not overly salty.
