Sometimes during the summer I have so much squash that I don't know what to do with it all. I usually bake it, make a casserole or fry it. I saw these yummy squash patties go across FB one day and since I had some I thought I'd give them a try.
They were so easy to make and we loved them. They didn't turn out as pretty as the ones I saw on FB, but as long as they taste good, right?
My squash finely chopped.
Ready for the hot oil.
Sizzle, sizzle.
They are greasy...we did soak in paper towels to take some of the grease off.
Not the prettiest.
Squash Patties
2 cups yellow squash, finely chopped
1 cup onion, finely chopped (I did not use this because we don't like onions)
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
oil
In a large bowl, combine squash, onion, egg, salt and pepper. Mix well. Stir in flour. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Drop batter into oil and cook about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towels.
If you like squash, give this a try and let me know how you like it. And if you have any squash recipes to share, send them my way!
Enjoy!
I love squash. This is a great idea!!Thank you!
