The frozen store bought chopped lemongrass usually has the bright green color due to artificial coloring. It's best to use the fresh lemongrass and chop it finely. <br /><br />I did remove the fish sauce from the recipe but then I added it back because it tastes better with fish sauce in it.

There appears to be a lot of bright green in the pan. Also, what does the comment above regarding the fish sauce mean? You have 1 tsp of fish sauce listed in your ingredients, so what did you mean by "I took out the fish sauce on purpose"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967868157203158291.post-24396422330659168182015-03-13T08:32:44.227-07:002015-03-13T08:32:44.227-07:00Thanks for catching it Jenni :-).

You can just microwave the clams then add herbs and nuts. The best way is preparing everything that night and store them in individual ziplog bags. Next day, you just cook the clams and mix everything together. It takes less than 10 minutes to create this dish if you prepare all the ingredients ahead.
