Step 1: Prepare ingredients

Wash the clams with diluted salt water, then soak them in water for about 30 minutes to remove all the sand. Rinse the clams again to clean them. Then put the clams in a pot, add water and place on the stove to boil until the clams open, then remove them.

Strain the water, remove the sand to cook soup. Separate the clam intestines to cook. Housewives can also leave the clams whole, without separating the intestines.

Peel the pineapple, remove the eyes and cut into bite-sized pieces. Cut the tomatoes into wedges. Wash the Vietnamese coriander and cut into 3cm pieces. You can use dill instead if you like. Peel and chop the onions and garlic.

Step 2: Cook sweet and sour broth

Place the pot on the stove, add a little cooking oil, heat it up and saute the chopped onions and garlic until fragrant. When the onions and garlic are golden brown, add the tomatoes and stir-fry briefly, helping to soften the tomatoes and create a beautiful color for the soup.

Next, add pineapple to the pot and stir well. Then add clams and stir well, then add clam broth and bring to a boil.

Step 3: Seasoning

Add fish sauce, seasoning powder, MSG and season to taste. The amount of seasoning depends on each person's taste, but you need to pay attention to make the soup sour, sweet and rich in flavor.

Step 4: Add Vietnamese coriander and complete the soup

Finally, add the Vietnamese coriander (or dill) to the pot of soup and cook for about 2 more minutes. The Vietnamese coriander will add a refreshing and slightly spicy flavor to the soup. Once the soup boils again, turn off the heat and ladle it into a bowl to enjoy.
