This is a unique way of making hash brown, these hash cakes are made out of potatoes and clam meat. You can serve this as an appetizer or you can also serve it as a viand accompanied by steamed rice or fried rice. And with regards to horse radish, it resembles the taste of wasabi. So if you can’t find horse radish wasabi can be a substitute. Actually, since fresh wasabi is so expensive, horse radish is often used in making wasabi paste.

To cook clam hash cakes; Steam clams with 1 cup water in a covered kettle over high heat, shaking the kettle occasionally, for 7-8 minutes, or until shells open. Discard any unopened shells. Let clams cool, then remove the meat and discard the shells. Mince the meat. In a skillet, cook bacon over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp and golden brown. With slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Reserve bacon fat in a small heat-proof bowl. In the skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the reserved fat over moderately low heat and cook onions until soft. Transfer onions to a large bowl. Drain potatoes well and pat dry.
