Crispy Homemade Clam Cakes Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by á-4084

Number Of Ingredients 11

Vegetable oil for frying
2 cups chopped clams, with juices
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Set a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil to a depth of 3 inches. Bring oil to 375° (or as close as you can). Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the clams with their juices, milk, egg and butter. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, and pepper. Add the clam mixture to the dry ingredients along with the lemon juice and stir just until combined (do not overmix). Drop batter into the oil by the heaping tablespoon (we use a medium cookie dough scoop). Work in batches so as not to crowd the pan, adjusting heat as necessary to maintain the temperature. Fry until clam cakes are nicely browned and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes total. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with paper towels to cool. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm, with lemon wedges on the side.

These clam cakes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

These clam cakes were a little too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of clam cakes, but I thought these were pretty good. They were well-seasoned and had a nice crispy crust.

Not bad! I've had better clam cakes, but these were still pretty good. I would make them again if I was in a pinch.

These clam cakes were a bit bland. I think I would add some more seasonings next time. Otherwise, they were cooked perfectly and had a nice crispy exterior.

These clam cakes were a little too oily for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of oil next time. Otherwise, they were tasty and had a nice texture.

I've tried many clam cake recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cakes were perfectly golden brown and cooked through evenly. The clam flavor was subtle but present in every bite.

These clam cakes were a hit at my beach party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a perfect balance of clam flavor. I'll definitely be making these again.
