Clam Fritters With Dilly Pesto Dip image

Do you like Indian Fry Bread? I have taken this idea for this bread to turn it into claim fritters and accompanying dip. This is a great recipe to load a crockpot on warm setting with the fritters and have the cold dip next to it for an appetizer party. This dip can be used with any baked or fried fish. Chilling or Cooling time not included.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my clam fritters turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

These clam fritters were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if they had been baked instead of fried.

The clam fritters were good, but I thought the dilly pesto dip was a bit too strong. I would have preferred it if the dill flavor had been more subtle.

These clam fritters were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if I had used less salt in the batter.

These fritters are so easy to make, and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use canned clams, so I don't have to worry about shucking them myself.
