Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large stock pot, bring about 5 cups of water to a boil and cook the parsnips until slightly softened, 5 to 7 minutes.When ready, remove the parsnips with a slotted spoon, but do not drain off the water.

  2. 2

    Transfer to a bowl. Set aside.Turn heat down to simmer and cover with lid.In the meantime, begin to prepare the other ingredients.While the parsnips are boiling.

  3. 3

    Heat a heavy-bottomed saut pan, set over over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Add coconut oil.When hot (throw in a piece to see if it sizzles) add the bacon to the oil and thyme and cook, stirring often, about 5 minutes, making sure not to burn the bacon.

  5. 5

    Add the red onion, celery and garlic, and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are translucent, 4 to 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Add the carrots and chili paste, stir often, and cook until the carrots soften slightly, 3 to 4 minutes and all the chili paste is blended.Note: This allows the flavor of the chili paste to coat all the ingredients before being diluted by the liquid.

  7. 7

    Add the parsnips and transfer most of the parsnip water (or all if you can fit it into your skillet, mine couldnt, I left about a cup in the pot) and stir to combine well.The liquid will turn a light red hue.

  8. 8

    Transfer to the simmering pot (with any remaining parsnip water, if some).

  9. 9

    Add the shucked clams and its juice and raise the heat to medium.
