Ingredients

  • 1 - Yellow Squash
  • 2 - Whole Eggs
  • 1 Cup - Milk
  • flour
  • Vegetable oil
  • a pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Slice the squash into thin slices about 1/4 inch thick and set aside.
  2. Pour enough oil into a large skillet or a large pot to coat the bottom, about an inch high. Then, heat the skillet to medium-high heat.
  3. Using a medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the milk.
  4. Using a shallow dish, pour the flour into the dish, start with about 1/2 cup and then add more as needed.
  5. Dip the squash into the egg and milk and soak for about 10-20 seconds. Once the squash is soaked, dip it into the flour mixture to coat well on both sides.
  6. Drop the floured squash into the hot oil carefully, and allow to fry for about 30 seconds before flipping with tongs. This will take 1-2 minutes, remove when browned.
  7. Place fried squash on a paper towel-lined plate and continue for all squash.
  8. Salt the squash before serving.
