Step 1
Pat the 8 oz clam strips dry with paper towels. Set up a dredging station: 0.5 cup flour in one bowl, 1 beaten egg in another.
Step 2
Heat 0.5 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Test with a pinch of flour—it should sizzle.
Step 3
Dredge the clam strips in the flour, then the egg, letting excess drip off. Fry in a single layer until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Step 4
Toast the sandwich bun in the skillet or toaster until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Spread 1 tbsp mayonnaise on the bottom half.
Step 5
Pile the fried clams on the bun, top with 1 cheese slice, and close with the top bun. Serve hot.
