Clam Fritters

Step 1

Combine dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Everything should be well mixed.

Step 2

Mix in the milk and eggs using a whisk.

Step 3

Add in green onions and baby clams. Gently mix.

Step 4

Heat oil in a large high sided frying pan. Oil should be about 1″ deep.

Step 5

Attach a candy/deep fryer thermometer to the side of the pan.

Step 6

Once the temperature reaches 375°F drop spoonfuls (about 1 1/2 tbsps worth) of batter into the oil. Cook for about 3 minutes and then flip them over and cook an additional 3 minutes.

Step 7

Remove from the oil and place on the metal cooling rack to drain any excess vegetable oil.

Step 8

Try not to overcrowd the pan while they are cooking. You can do these in several batches.

Step 9

Serve right away and enjoy!

Step 10

These taste awesome with my homemade tartar sauce. 🙂
