Summer squash, sliced or cut into sticks or chunks, are tossed in buttermilk, then dredged into a lightly seasoned flour mixture, and quickly deep fried to crunchy goodness.
Fried Squash
Okay, yeah, I know... fried squash ain't exactly the healthiest way to eat summer squash, but I've been pretty lucky so far with my squash plants {crosses fingers} and so, I'm trying to get a few different recipes up for summer squash. Maybe you shouldn't eat these every day, but I have to say, they sure are good enough to want to!I highly recommend using a deep fryer instead of pan frying because it fries food faster and at more even temperatures, absorbing significantly less oil. These should come out of the deep fryer super-crunchy, and they are best eaten hot and right out of the fryer.
If you're serving these as a side, make it the last thing that you cook because if they sit too long they will mush up on ya ... though they don't sit still long enough around here for that business! The amounts listed are simply estimates to feed roughly 4 folks - adjust everything as needed! Enjoy.
