How to Make Fried Squash

Fried Yellow Squash

This is a timeless recipe that requires very little ingredients and constant watching. It can be taxing but it is well worth it. This squash is flavorful and great for dipping. You can add ranch dip to liven up this side dish or to make an appetizer.

Things You'll Need

• Yellow Squash (whole)
• Salt
• Flour (non-bleached)
• Vegetable Oil
• Large Frying pan

Instructions

1. First, Rinse your squash under cold or cool water.

2. Cut the squash into slices. They should be about a quarter of an inch thick, throwing away the ends.

3. With a salt shaker, lightly salt the cut squash. You only need to salt one side. DO NOT USE TOO MUCH SALT. If the squash it too salty it will ruin the flavor completely.

4. Cover the squash slices in flour either by shaking them in a Ziploc bag or hand dipping them in a bowl or on a plate of flour.

5. Fill the frying pan about a quarter of the way full with vegetable oil and heat on the stove burner on medium heat. The oil will begin to bubble and sizzle.
