  1. For coriander sauce, place 1 Tbsp. olive oil, 1 cup onion and celery in saucepan and cook 5 minutes. Deglaze with wine; simmer 3 minutes. Add fumet or clam juice, 1 Tbsp. lemon juice and salt and pepper. Add cilantro and chiles and purée with grapeseed oil until frothy. Adjust seasoning; set aside.
  2. For risotto, heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in saucepan and sauté shallot. Add rice and sauté 2 minutes. Add 1/4 tsp. salt and gradually add 1 cup heated fumet or clam juice each time liquid is absorbed (4 cups total or more if necessary). Stir in butter 5 minutes before rice is done (toothy but not gritty to the bite). Stir in cheese and ginger. Set aside.
  3. To cook clams, bring 1 cup fumet or clam juice, bay leaf, peppercorns, white wine, remaining lemon juice and remaining 1 cup onions to boil. Add clams and simmer until they open; strain and keep warm.
  4. Season fish with salt and pepper. Heat sauté pan with remaining olive oil until very hot and sear fish, a few minutes each side.
  5. To serve, divide risotto onto 4 plates, placing a piece of fish on each plate. Place 4 clams around the fish. Drizzle sauce over fish and clams.
