Yield 3 people

Number Of Ingredients 5

15 cleaned razor clams
3 eggs
1 cup of flour
1 cup of panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
Dash (or two or three or four depending on your taste) of sea salt and pepper

Steps:

First rinse clams, drain and pat dry with a paper towel. Then dip clam pieces into the flour (I add the salt and pepper into the flour), then into the beaten eggs, and roll in the panko. Using on medium high heat, fry the clams in quarter-inch of oil in a pan. Brown the clams for about one minute and then flip them over to brown the other side for just as long. Take out and lay out on paper towels to absorb the grease and serve. Pan fried razor clams with a gob of tartar sauce! This is the best way because the sweet and tender razor clams must be cooked fast, and if overcooked, they become tough.
