ZUCCHINI AND YELLOW SQUASH FRITTERS
A tasty and colorful summer dish, goes well as a side or, if you're me, it can make an entire meal (with some sour cream for dipping)! I'd been seeing all the reviews of zucchini fritters lately, but since I had yellow squash in the fridge, I decided to mix them up. Not exactly ground-breaking, but it made a wonderful little treat! If you prefer a little more bite, these would porbably be great spiced up with some cayenne. I also might try using sharp cheddar instead of the parm in the future.

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.

YELLOW SQUASH FRITTERS
A tasty way to use up left-over stewed yellow squash. My family enjoys these so much that I usually purposely stew too much squash in order to have enough to make these fritters. I normally serve them with a baked or roasted meat, green beans and cole slaw.

ZUCCHINI OR SUMMER SQUASH FRITTERS
These fritters will be amazing if they're made with shredded zucchini or summer squash. Easy to prepare, they're a tasty afternoon snack. The outer edges are crispy and the center stays soft. Onion adds a tiny hint of sweetness to the fritters. We placed ours in the oven to keep warm and they turned out perfect.

Steps:
- 1. If planning to serve as soon as they're done, preheat oven to 250 degrees. Have a baking sheet lined with paper towels ready.
- 2. Trim ends off zucchini and grate them either on the large holes of a box grater or, if you have one, using the shredding blade of a food processor.
- 3. In a large bowl, toss zucchini with 1 teaspoon coarse salt and set aside for 10 minutes.
- 4. Wring out the zucchini in one of the following ways: pressing it against the holes of a colander with a wooden spoon to extract the water, squeezing out small handfuls at a time, or wrapping it up in a clean dishtowel or piece of cheesecloth and wringing away.
- 5. Return deflated mass of zucchini shreds to bowl. Taste and if you think it could benefit from more salt add a little bit more. Stir in onion, egg, flour, and some freshly ground black pepper.
- 6. In a large heavy skillet, heat 2-3 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Drop small bunches of the zucchini mixture onto the skillet only a few at a time so they don't become crowded and lightly nudge them flatter with the back of your spatula.
- 7. Cook the fritters over moderately high heat until the edges underneath are golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the fritters and fry them on the other side until browned underneath again, about 2 to 3 minutes more.
- 8. Drain briefly on paper towels then transfer to the baking sheet.
- 9. Then place into the warm oven until needed. Repeat the process, keeping the pan well-oiled, with remaining batter.
- 10. Cook's Note: I like to make sure that the fritters have at least 10 minutes in the oven to finish setting and getting extra crisp.
- 11. Do ahead: (This is the best part!) These fritters keep well, either chilled in the fridge for the better part of a week and or frozen in a well-sealed package for months. When you're ready to use them, simply spread them out on a tray in a 325 degree oven until they're hot and crisp again.

- To prepare squash for fritter mixture you must squeeze all of the water out first. Take a small batch of shredded zucchini and squash and place in the center of a clean dish towel. Pull sides of dish towel up and standing over your sink turn into a ball by twisting – squeezing all of the water out of the vegetable in the process. Repeat a couple of times per batch. Place squeezed shredded zucchini and squash into a large mixing bowl.
- Add eggs to shredded zucchini and squash and using a fork, combine. Add a big pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper along with 4 heaping tablespoons of flour and Parmesan cheese. Gently stir until mixture is combined.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add oil to pan. Using a fork, scoop out a small amount of fritter mixture (about a heaping tablespoon worth) and place into skillet. Using your utensil, carefully spread out the fritter mixture to form a small thin pancake shape. Cook each fritter for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
