• 1 tablespoon cooking oil
• salt and ground pepper to taste
• 3 cups water

Cooking Direction:

1. Saute ginger, onion and tomato in cooking oil till caramelized.
2. Pour in water and bring to a boil.
3. Season with salt and ground pepper to taste.
4. Add clams, chili pepper and simmer in medium low heat for about 10 minutes.
5. Add green onions and remove pot  from heat.
6. *You can add malunggay leaves or pepper leaves if available.*
