46 - Wednesday, June 5, 1985 - North Shore News budget beaters by Barbara McCreadie News for chowder lovers supermarkets this week but one you may Tore ARE some excellent buys in all the overlook is the Wcodward’s brand tinned baby ciams at $1.39. If you’re a chowder fover, now’s the time to stock up. Here’s another way to use these delicious little bites - this serves two as a main course, four as an appetizer. Fettucine with Clam Sauce I tablespoon onion, finely chopped 1 large clove garlic, crushed 2 tablespoons Lutter 1 tin baby clams Ys Ib. fresh Fettuccini noodles fresh parsley grated parmesan cheese freshly crecked pepper Saute the onion and garlic in dutter until soft but not browned. Add the liquid from the clams and simmer until it’s reduced by about 1/3. Cook the noodles as directed (ask at the shop - fresh pasta cooks faster than dried). Add the clams to the clam liquid mixture and heat well. Toss the sauce with the noo- dies and garnish with parsley, pepper and cheese. Fresh pasta absorbs sauces so serve immediately. This is Jades Hoyas ' OPEN Tropicals for Fittonias Creeping Figs [SUNDaY| very quick to prepare - along with a salad and rolls you can have dinner on the table in less than half an hour. Another excellent buy is boneless sirloin steak at Super Valu - $2.88 a pound - limit 4. I cut these into single serving pieces and freeze separately before bagging. That way, my kids don’t defrost four pounds of steak to feed three people. Both Super Valu and Stong's have utility fryers a: 95¢ a pound - excellent for spit barbecues. Look for pork butt roasts (boneless) at Safeway - it’s still cool enough to cook a roast for Sunday dinner and at 98¢ a pound you can afford to buy a big one. Cut off enough for skewered pork or sweet and sour - much cheaper than buying the pre-cut pieces. Here’s a ‘‘Chinese’’ recipe that goes well with sweet and sour pork or skewered pork.
