For the albondigas: sweat the shallots in olive oil until soft. Add the paprika and continue to sweat them for a few seconds, then add the garlic and sherry vinegar and cook over a low heat for 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
Mix the shallot mixture with the breadcrumbs and allow to cool for a moment.
Combine the pork mince and egg yolk with the breadcrumb mixture and season with salt and pepper. Mold into 9 small meatballs.
Gently fry the meatballs in olive oil until golden brown. Set to one side.

Add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Stir in the fresh clams and cover until they are open fully (discard any that don’t open).
