Squash patties are very tasty in the summer when summer squash is in season. We ended up using a combination of yellow squash and zucchini. When pan havefried, the edges get a little crispy, and the natural sweetness of the squash comes out. Enjoy them sprinkled with a little salt. Or, serve with sour cream or ketchup. It is surprising how similar to latkes these squash patties taste. These fried squash patties are a nice summer side dish and very similar to potato patties.

Ingredients :
- 2 cup(s) grated squash
- 1/2 - onion, grated (or finely chopped green onions with tops)
- 2 teaspoon(s) granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) each of salt and black pepper
- 1/4 cup(s) plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 large eggs, beaten
Intructions :
- Mix squash, onion, sugar, salt, and pepper and place in a colander to drain. The salt and sugar will draw the moisture out of the squash. You want most of the moisture out of the squash, so you may leave it in the colander for a while or squeeze the mixture with your hands to remove as much of the liquid as possible
- Place squash mixture in a bowl. Add flour and eggs. Mix well
- Place extra virgin olive oil plus a small amount of canola oil in a frying pan and heat. (The canola oil will keep the olive oil from burning as olive will get very hot and burn quickly.)
- Form squash mixture into patties and fry until done and browned.
