In a hot pan put a good few tablespoons of olive oil, now when it’s hot add the minced garlic and sauté almost like stir frying it keep it moving until you can smell it, now add the cockles and now the wine and give it a good drink too about 8 oz, now cover with a lid and let steam for about 5 min if they are cockles they will open pretty quick.

Take lid off and check they are all open. Add a pad of butter, a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of kosher salt and toss carefully and start to reduce the sauce until the wine has reduced most of the way. Now add the parsley and let cook for another min. Plate add more fresh parsley and a little squeeze of lemon juice to freshen it up and serve with some bread.
