Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 4 cups peeled and diced potatoes
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 (10 ounce) cans minced clams, drained with juice reserved

  • 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour

Directions
