BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Blot excess moisture from Green Giant Veggie Spirals® Butternut Squash with paper towel. Combine butternut squash, flour, Parmesan cheese, eggs, and sage in large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir gently until mixture is just combined.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook 4 pancakes (use about 3 tablespoons mixture per pancake), turning once, until pancakes are golden brown, about 6 minutes. Repeat with additional oil and batter.
• Drain pancakes on paper towel-lined plate.
• Serve pancakes with plain Greek yogurt or sour cream, if desired.

SUMMER SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Place grated squash in a colander and squeeze out all excess water; you should have about 1 cup grated squash. Transfer squash to a bowl. Add onion, flour, egg, baking powder, and salt and stir batter together.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drop batter into the hot pan and use the back of a large spoon to flatten fritters to 3 to 4 inches in diameter and to 1/4- to 1/8-inch thickness. Cook until edges are deep brown, about 1 minute. Flip over and cook 30 seconds more. Transfer fritters to a plate lined with a paper towel and sprinkle lightly with salt. Repeat with remaining batter, melting more butter in the pan as needed.
• Serve warm topped with Cheddar cheese, onion, and sour cream.

SUMMER SQUASH FRITTERS WITH GARLIC DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees, put garlic cloves in a small baking dish and add enough olive oil to cover. Roast until garlic is soft and golden, about 30 minutes. Cool.
• Drain garlic, reserving oil. Transfer to a food processor, add 1 tablespoon reserved oil and the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper and purée. Transfer to a bowl and stir in chives. Use remaining oil for another purpose.
• Combine flour, Cheddar, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, gently whisk eggs with beer. Pour egg mixture into flour mixture and stir until combined. Stir in zucchini, yellow squash and onion.
• Heat canola oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Drop about 1 tablespoon of batter into the oil per fritter and fry 6 fritters at a time until golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes a side. Remove to paper towels to drain. Serve hot, with the sauce on the side.

ZUCCHINI AND YELLOW SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Remove seeds from the squash and zucchini, then coarsely grate them so that they have a rope-like texture. Using a food processor would work, too.
• Add 1 tsp salt to the zucchini and squash and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then remove as much water as possible from the zucchini and squash. You can do this by placing it in a colander and pressing with a spoon, or by wrapping it in a clean dishcloth and squeezing.
• Add onion, cheese, parsley, and the egg, then season with salt and pepper.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder, then add the flour into your zucchini and squash mixture and mix well.
• Heat the 2 tbs oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Then drop handfuls of the mixture into the oil and flatten with your spatula. Let them fry on one side for 2:30-3 minutes, then flip and fry for another 2 minutes. Remove from pan and place them on a paper towel to drain. Repeat until you've used all your batter.
• Serve warm, with sour cream for dipping.

SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Grate the squash with a cheese grater into mixing bowl.
• Add the cheese, onion and egg.
• Mix together and then add flour until it is almost a dry mix.
• Heat oil in skillet and drop spoon size amounts of mixture into hot grease and take spoon and flatten them to make into shape of pancake.
• Fry until golden brown and sprinkle with salt.

DELICATA SQUASH AND CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Line a plate with a paper towel. In a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium until shimmering. In 2 batches, fry sage leaves, turning, until darker green in color and crisp, about 1 minute. (Be careful not to burn; sage will continue to crisp up as it cools.) Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer to the paper towel-lined plate. Pour sage oil into a heatproof bowl and reserve.
• In a food processor fitted with the grating attachment, or on the large holes of a box grater, shred the zucchini. (You should have ½ cup.) Squeeze to remove excess water and transfer zucchini to a large bowl. Then shred the delicata squash. (You should have 3¼ to 3½ cups.) Add to the bowl.
• Add the corn, scallions and garlic to the bowl of shredded zucchini and squash, and mix until evenly combined. Add egg, season with salt and pepper, and mix well. Sift flour and baking powder into the bowl, and fold until well combined and no white streaks remain.
• Line a platter or baking sheet with paper towels. In the skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the reserved sage oil over medium. Working in batches of four, spoon ¼-cupfuls of the batter into the skillet, flattening the fritters until they're just over 3 inches in diameter each. (They should look lacey.) Cook until fritters are set and golden and crisp underneath, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until crisp on the second side (adding a little more sage oil if the pan looks dry), about 2 minutes. Transfer to the paper towel-lined platter and season with salt. Repeat with the remaining sage oil and batter, adding about 3 tablespoons of oil with each batch.
• Transfer fritters to a serving platter and garnish with the crispy sage leaves. Serve warm.

PATTY PAN SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Before shredding, cut out the stem of the squash, but there's no need to peel it. Remove any large seeds, especially if using a large squash.
• Preheat about 1/2 inch oil (I prefer olive oil) over medium-high heat in a deep skillet.
• Place the squash and onions into a large bowl.
• Beat the eggs, milk and oil into the squash/onion mixture. Then add the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper and mix all until combined.
• Scoop batter using a 1/4 cup measure and drop batter into hot oil. Do not crowd.
• Cook until brown, turn with a spatula and cook the other side until brown.
• Drain on paper toweling.
• Add oil to pan when necessary.
• Keep warm until served.
• Serve with horseradish sauce, ketchup or whatever you like. They are great as is!

YELLOW SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Preheat vegetable oil at one inch depth in a heavy skillet on medium heat.
• Combine cooked squash, beaten egg, flour, pepper and salt.
• Add Parmesan cheese.
• Drop squash mixture by tablespoonsful into the hot oil.
• Cook to a golden brown, turning once.
• Drain on a rack over paper towels.
• Serve immediately--fritters are also good served at room temperature.
