Scramble the egg. Mix the egg with the squash. Season with pepper. Heat the vegetable oil to med-high in a shallow frying pan. Form the mix into palm-sized patties. Fry until golden brown on each side. Optional. Dust hash browns with a little brown sugar. I haven't tried this yet, but next time I'm gonna top the patties with caramelized onions.
