Does anyone have any good Indian recipes for clams or mussels?

Question

I love to eat clams and mussels, but I also love Indian food.
So what better than to combine the two, but I havent been able to find very many Indian recipes using clams/mussels.

THANKS in advance!

This one is my personal fav:

Indian Mussels Goa-Style
A delicious shellfish recipe from Goa, using spices and fresh coconut.

Ingredients
2 1/4 lbs. mussels
4 Tbl. veg. oil
1 tsp. cumin seeds
1 medium onion
6 cloves garlic
1 1/4 inch piece fresh ginger root
2 fresh hot chili peppers
1 tsp. turmeric
2 cups freshly grated coconut
1 tsp. salt

Method
Heat the oil and let the cumin seeds begin to spatter before adding
the finely chopped onion. Cook until it is soft. Grind the garlic and ginger
to a paste with a little water. Add the paste to the onion and, after a
few minutes, stir in the seeded and chopped chilies and turmeric. Add the
coconut, salt and about 10 fl. ozs. water. Simmer for about 5 minutes,
then add the scrubbed mussels, still in their shells. Mix well and simmer
for another 5 minutes or so, when all the shells should be open.
