Zubereitung von Battered Fried Clams
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
- Dip each clam into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Dredge the egg-coated clam in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the batter.
- Heat about 1 inch of oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Carefully place the battered clams in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding (about 6-8 clams per batch).
- Fry for 1-1.5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a thermometer to check the internal temperature of the clams reaching 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the fried clams with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately with tartar sauce and your favorite sides.
