Ingredients
3
3 servings
- •1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
- •1 large egg
- •1 tablespoon milk
- •1 pinch salt
- •1 cup dry bread crumbs, or more as needed
- •1 large yellow squash, cut into 1-inch slices
- •½ cup all-purpose flour
- •4 ounces garden vegetable cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large frying pan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Beat egg, milk, and salt in a shallow bowl. Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl.
- Coat both sides of squash slices in flour. Dip each slice in the egg mixture, then coat both sides with bread crumbs.
- Place 4 to 5 slices in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and fork-tender, about 3 minutes on each side, using tongs and a fork to help turn them over in the pan. Do not overcrowd; overcrowding will reduce crispiness. Set fried slices on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Continue frying remaining slices. Let cool, about 5 minutes.
- "Frost" slices with some of the vegetable cream cheese as desired. Serve while still warm, or at room temperature.
