- If the whelks are frozen, thaw them first. The first thing to do is remove the dark digestive tract—it's long and easy to spot among the other parts. Set a pot of water on to boil and salt it. Add the whelks and, once the water returns to a boil, cook them for four minutes. Cook them any longer and the meat turns rubbery. Take the whelks out of the pot. Once they've cooled, cut them into medium pieces. Slice the onion into half-rings. Heat a skillet with oil and sauté the whelks with the onion. They're done when the onion turns golden. Arrange on a plate and top with lemon slices and green onions. Enjoy!
