Clam Cake Ingredients
Method
Clam Cake Preparation
Prepare the batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Add clams and parsley
Fold in the chopped clams and parsley into the batter until evenly distributed.
Heat the oil
In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the clam cakes
Drop spoonfuls of the clam batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Drain and serve
Remove the clam cakes from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
