Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the sausages and boil for 8 minutes to remove excess fat. Drain, let cool for 10 minutes then cut on the diagonal into ½-inch-thick slices.
- Step 2
Lay the clams in a single layer in a flameproof roasting pan. Top with the sausage and the rest of the ingredients, except the scallions and lemon, and bring to a boil on top of the stove. Then put the pan in the oven. Roast the clams for 8 minutes. Mix the ingredients and roast for 5 to 10 minutes longer, or until all the clams have opened.
- Step 3
Place 12 clams in each of 4 large, heated bowls and pour the broth over them, evenly distributing the sausages, onions, endive and tomatoes. Garnish with julienned scallions and lemon wedges.

I've been making this since it was first published. I use mussels rather than clams. It's excellent and a good dinner party recipe since it can be set up in advance and only requires a few minutes to finish.
This is a great company dish and it’s truly yummy. I sometimes use mussels rather than clams and that’s equally good.
I once tried substituting leeks for the Belgian endive and have pretty much stuck to that from then on. SUPER delicious!
