I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my clams were not cooked properly. The curry sauce was also a bit bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. The clams were cooked perfectly and the curry sauce was very flavorful. I would make it again, but I would use less chili peppers.

This Goan Curried Clams recipe was a delight to make! The flavors were so rich and complex, and the clams were cooked perfectly. I served it with some basmati rice, and it was a perfect meal.
