  8. When cooled, remove the meat from the shells of 2/3 of the clams. Set the broth from the clams aside for later use.
  9. Pour the sesame oil into a frying pan, and stir-fry the burdock root and carrot. When they are cooked through, add the aburaage, soy sauce, and mirin, and simmer for 2 minutes over medium heat.
