1. Add olive oil into the pot, sauté the minced shallot until fragrant. Add the clams, thyme and white wine in. Cover the lid and cook for 4-5 minutes until all the clams are opened up. Take out the meat and reserve the juice for later use.
2. Add butter into the pot. Slowly cook the onion and garlic until soft and translucent. Add the flour and make a roux.
3. Add the chicken stock into the pot in a few goes. Keep mixing to avoid the lumps. Add the milk and bring it to a boil. Then put the potatoes and thyme in and cook for 15 minutes.

4. After 15 minutes, add the carrot, clams and clam juice into the soup. Cook for another 5-10 minutes. Season it and it’s done!

P.S. Sprinkle some chopped parsley on top and enjoy this perfect meal!
