3 c. clams, chopped
6 med. white potatoes, diced
5 c. water
5 tbsp. melted fat
1 med. onion, diced
1/3 c. rice
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine first 5 ingredients. Bring to boiling point. Add rice, salt and pepper. Cook until potatoes are done, about 30 minutes. (Clams become tough if over cooked.) Serve while hot.
