Spaghetti Squash Fritters With Sriracha Mayonnaise Recipes

SPAGHETTI SQUASH FRITTERS WITH SRIRACHA MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• 1. Cut squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out seeds; discard. Place squash halves, cut sides up, in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave at HIGH 20 minutes or until tender. Let stand 10 minutes. Scrape inside of squash with a fork to remove spaghettilike strands to measure 4 cups.
• 2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add spinach to pan; cook 2 minutes or until spinach wilts. Place squash and spinach on a clean dish towel; squeeze until barely moist. Coarsely chop squash mixture, and place in a large bowl. Add panko and next 4 ingredients (through baking powder), and toss well to combine. Place egg whites in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into squash mixture.
• 3. Fill a 1/4-cup dry measuring cup with squash mixture. Invert onto work surface; gently pat into a 3/4-inch-thick patty. Repeat procedure with remaining squash mixture, forming 10 patties total. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons oil to pan, and swirl to coat. Add 5 patties to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove patties from pan; keep warm. Repeat the procedure with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and squash patties.
• 4. Combine mayonnaise and remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Serve with fritters.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• Place the squash in a large bowl. If it's too moist, wrap it in some paper towels and squeeze out the excess liquid.
• Add the arrowroot starch/flour, salt, green onion, and bacon and stir to combine well.
• Whisk the eggs in a small bowl, then add them to the squash mixture and stir to combine.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add enough oil to coat the pan, and when it's hot, spoon the squash mixture to form fritters of your desired size; 1/4 cup per fritter works well.
• When the fritters are crispy and browned on one side, about 5 minutes, use a spatula to flip them and continue cooking on the other side until crisped, about 5 minutes longer. Serve hot.

FAST AND EASY SPAGHETTI SQUASH FRITTERS

Steps:

• The best way to cook Spaghetti Squash is to stab it a few times with a small knife. Microwave on High for 7 minutes, roll it over, and nuke til it gives when you push on it (about 7 minutes depending on the size of your squash). Cool til you can handle it. Chop off the stem end, cut lengthwise, scoop out the fibers and the seeds. With a fork, scrape out the spaghetti. Mix with all other ingredients and pan fry by large spoonfuls til crispy and golden brown. Warning -- These are addictive!
