Jamaican Clam Curry
As seen on TV
Which Show?
Who made this dish?
Chris Morgan: "Brutal. I like clam chowder a lot, but I don't make clam chowder."
Chris Morgan: "I'm making a Jamaican clam curry with a potato base. My aunt on my mom's side is Jamaican. She would bring stuff back from Jamaica — Scotch bonnets and various different ingredients that we couldn't get here. Those memories stick with you. I'm aware that Padma likes heat, so I'm definitely not shying away from it. You should be sweating if you're eating a Jamaican curry."
To judges: "So you have a Jamaican clam curry." Chris Morgan (post-result): "I can breathe easy for a few minutes until some other curveball comes our way."
Michael Cimarusti: "This is the spiciest thing I have eaten in a long time. Yeah, there's a lot going on here, but this dish put a big smile on my face."
Wiley Dufresne: "I just think that you put too much of each item in the bowl."
Verdict: Both judges voted Chris Morgan's dish as better. Michael Cimarusti: "For me, today, Chris's chowder takes the day."
Wiley Dufresne: "Today for me? Chris, you had the better dish." Chris Morgan advanced; Russell Jackson was eliminated.
