Yellow Squash Fritters

Ingredients

-1 lb. yellow squash

-½ medium onion

-1 large egg

-1 teaspoon salt

- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

-1 teaspoon garlic powder

-2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Directions

-Shred the squash in your food processor using the shredding attachment. Place on clean towels and allow to drain for 10 minutes. You can also grate the squash by hand.

-Finely chop the onion. Place it in a colander to drain for 10 minutes.

-Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes.

-In a medium bowl, whisk the egg with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add the grated squash and the onion and mix to blend.

-Brush the skillet with half of the butter. Measuring ¼ cup per fritter, spoon the mixture onto the skillet. Fry without moving for 4-5 minutes, until you can see that the bottoms are browned.

-Carefully flip to the other side and fry for 4-5 more minutes, until browned on both sides. Brush the skillet with more butter and repeat with the remaining squash mixture.
