Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Rinse the 1 lb razor clams under cold water, scrubbing the shells. Drain well.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add 1 inch sliced ginger and the white parts of 4 green onions (cut into 2-inch pieces); stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Add the clams and stir-fry for 2 minutes, tossing constantly. They will begin to open.

  4. Step 4

    Pour in 2 tbsp soy sauce and continue stir-frying until all clams have opened and are coated in the sauce, about 2 more minutes. Discard any that stay closed.

  5. Step 5

    Garnish with the remaining green onion greens, sliced, and serve immediately.
