Spaghetti with Clams and Green Beans

Rate & Review

(39 people have added this recipe to their favorites.)

This is Australian chef Neil Perry's variation on the Italian classic spaghetti vongole (pasta with clams). He adds green beans to make the dish fresher-tasting, and then finishes it with a sprinkling of Parmigiano-Reggiano. As he says, "Serving cheese with seafood is not the norm in Italy, but I just love it here."

Pairing Suggestion

"This spaghetti vongole has lots of flavor from the beans and a little bit of heat from the chile," Perry says, "so it's great with Riesling." Particularly his friend Grosset's Riesling: Grosset is arguably the greatest Riesling producer in Australia. His 2006 Watervale Riesling is full of classic citrus and mineral notes. Or look for the zesty 2006 Wolf Blass Yellow Label.

Spaghetti with Clams and Green Beans

My husband and I absolutely loved this recipe!! It will definitely be added to our must make again recipe collection. The only thing we think we'll do different is add more tomatoes and more green beans. Outside of that, the flavor and consistency was exceptional!!
