To begin making the Tisrayanche Suke recipe, first we will clean the clams. First open them into halves using a sharp knife.
Then with a knife, lift all the flesh from one shell, and drop it in the other and discard the shell with no flesh.
Repeat for all the remaining clams. Wash them well for 3 to 4 times.
Apply turmeric powder and keep it aside for 10 minutes.
In a heavy bottom vessel, add these clams, and cook on medium high heat, uncovered for 5 minutes, mixing in between.
If you feel the clams are too dry, then add a tablespoon of water. Usually you don’t require water for this.
Now add coconut, chopped onions, slit chillies, red chilli powder. Mix well.
