Ingredients

8 oz Chourico sausage, chopped

24 small clams, in the shell, scrubbed

1 medium red onion, cut into slices

1 (28 oz) can crushed Roma tomatoes

1 pinch red pepper flakes (this is optional)

1 (8 oz) bottle clam juice

1 (12 fl. oz) can or bottle of dark beer

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup cornmeal

3 tbsp fresh oregano, chopped

3 garlic cloves, finely diced

1 pinch salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

In a large pot, add clams and cover with water. Mix in the cornmeal, and allow to stand for around 20 minutes. Rinse the clams thoroughly prior to cooking.

In a large pot, heat the olive oil and garlic over medium heat. When you can smell the garlic add the sausage, onion, and pepper flakes. Now, cook for 2-3 minutes, then add in about 3/4 of the beer. Allow the mixture to simmer for a couple minutes more, then add the clams, clam juice, and tomatoes.

Cover, and allow the clams to simmer until they all open. Add some seasoning with the oregano, salt and pepper prior to serving. Drink or discard the left over beer.
