Ingredients
- 2 lbs steamer clams
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 4 cups panko Japanese bread crumbs
- 3 eggs
- 3 tbs water (to make egg wash)
- 1 tbs water for AirFryer
- Oil sprayer (healthy oil of your choice)
Directions
- Soak the clams for two or three hours, drain and rinse under cold water.
- Bring one inch of water in a pot with a tight-fitting lid to simmer. 
- Cover the pot and steam until clams are open for about 7-10 minutes. Do not overcook the steamers.
- Remove clams from the shell, strip the skin off the neck and set aside.
- To prepare egg wash, crack eggs in a small bowl and whisk the eggs with water.
- Dip steamers in flour and shake off excess flour. Coat the steamers with egg wash and press the steamers gently into panko and coat completely.
- Set Philips AirFryer to 350F. Add 1 tbs of water to the bottom of the AirFryer. Misting steamers with oil sprayer, place steamers in the basket inside the AirFryer for 7-10 minutes depending on the size of steamers. Remove from the basket and serve with WATCHAREE'S Pad Thai sauce.
- Alternatively, heat oil in a pan or deep fryer to 375F. Fry clams until golden brown for 4-5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve with
