Directions

  1. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl. Add the oil, pecorino cheese, minced garlic, and finely chopped parsley. ≈ 4 min
  2. Finally, add the breadcrumbs, using enough to achieve the desired consistency, and mix until a smooth mixture is formed. ≈ 4 min
  3. Fill the cleaned clamshells, keeping them as intact as possible. ≈ 10 min
  4. Secure them with white cooking thread to prevent the filling from leaking. ≈ 3 min
  5. In a ceramic dish, combine the finely chopped onion and oil, then add the razor clams. Season with salt and cook over very low heat, stirring constantly without turning, until the clams are well browned and the onion is golden.
  6. Add the tomato sauce. Simmer over very low heat for about 45 minutes, ensuring that the sea bass doesn’t stick to the pan.
